This handsome black cat is still learning that humans can be pretty wonderful! He`s a little shy and nervous right now, but with patience, kindness, and a little time, he`s beginning to discover that people can be trusted. He`s looking for a special home where he can settle in at his own pace, without pressure or expectations. A quiet environment, a cozy hiding spot, and a loving person willing to let him come out of his shell on his own terms would mean the world to him.He may not be the kind of cat who rushes into your arms right away, but earning his trust will make every little milestone that much more rewarding. With a patient heart and a little TLC, this sweet boy has the chance to blossom into a wonderful companion.If you are interested in adopting, please complete our adoption questionnaire and a staff member will reach out to schedule a meet and greet.https://hamiltonmcnj.seamlessdocs.com/f/AdoptionApplication, or you can stop by during shelter hours to visit the cats in our adoption room.Hamilton Township Animal Shelter cannot offer any guarantees on the age, health, temperament, personality or mental disposition of any pet.
