My name is Blaze!

My history is a mystery and my friends here do not know much about me yet!

I have lived with cats in my previous home.

I am finding the shelter a little overwhelming, but when it's just you and me and some peace and quiet you'll see what a love bug I am.

I am looking for a home with a patient person.

I can be slow to adjust to new environments. I prefer to take things at my own pace.

I will flourish in a calm environment and a low-traffic home.

What my friends at ACC say about me:

Blaze was curled up hiding in the den with a neutral body and wide eyes when removing the den cover. He pokes his head out to sniff treats offered and then steps back into the den. He allows petting on the head, cheeks, and body but does not engage with the attention. He hesitantly goes out and back into the den, and eventually requires some encouragement from the assessor, who gently nudges him from the rear, to walk out of the den. Blaze curls up in the litter box and then climbs up on top of the den when applying gentle upward pressure on his side and chest to lift him up. He crouches down and wraps his tail around his body and continues to tolerate more petting and cheek rubs but lip licks.

A volunteer writes: Blaze tries everyday to be a little braver. Diligently responding to all of our requests with his very best efforts, we can't help but admire the work Blaze is willing to put in to find a family. Blaze came to us from a home with many other cats and without much else information. We quickly learned all the ways in which he works to make the best of things. For example, Blaze greeted me as best he could by leaning his neck back into my hand for some pets. He allows pets, and though isn't always one to ask, he will venture out of his cubby and his bed with just a tiny extra patience and some gentle encouragement. It could be that Blaze isn't sure how to ask, or maybe that he hasn't had as many opportunities to meet new people, but he has one really big question that he's been wanting to ask and it's if you'd like to meet him?
