Biscuit is an all-grey, fluffy cat who had been experiencing stress in the shelter environment. In his first few days, he was defensive during handling—hissing, swatting, and more—but with time and patience, he has begun to soften and put his walls down. Now he greets people and is allowing gentle petting on his head and shoulders. He’s still learning boundaries and how to feel safe. Biscuit has shown that with understanding, consistency, and space, he is willing to take small steps forward—and in his ideal home, those steps can continue.

As long the pet is spayed/neutered, you can take them home the same day.
