My name is Basil!

He is a small, shy 3 year old cat, and he has been neutered. He is house trained and has the cutest squeaky mew. He rarely vocalizes when he is nervous or unsure of a situation, but is prone to hissing out of fear when approached. He loves to play when he becomes comfortable in an environment and enjoys back scratches. After getting comfortable with his home, he does enjoy sleeping on the bed with his family and he loves to eat. He has medium-to-low-level energy but is very very skittish. He gets along well with other cats, but has never been around dogs or small children.
He was rescued as a kitten from a stray colony and is easily frightened. He is an indoor house-cat only looking for an experienced, patient cat owner and perhaps one or two other cat companions to play with.
