Shy Guy comes from a colony of cats that existed in our neighborhood since before we moved in. We've been told the colony formed when one of our neighbors threw out their unfixed female cat and she repeatedly became pregnant and birthed multiple litters. Shy Guy was one of the friendlier kittens that we were able to socialize and take in. Like the others, he's in need of a home. We do our best, but we are low income and can barely afford to care for this many cats.
As his name suggests, he has a very shy and anxious demeanor. It's likely he'll always be a little bit afraid of you. However, if you apply a gentle approach and let him come to you, sometimes he will surprise you and show you affection. He just needs a lot of patience. The best home for Shy Guy is one that is quiet.
We prefer if Shy Guy was adopted with his mother as she provides him comfort, but we are now willing to adopt them out separately.
