Meet Darwin, a shy but resilient 5-year-old male who is looking for a fresh start! Previously in a crowded environment, this Persian/Mix kitty didn’t have the chance to experience a typical loving home. He may be initially cautious, but with gentle patience, he has great potential to blossom in a calm, understanding environment.
Darwin is learning to trust people and will need time to warm up, but each day in a loving home brings him closer to feeling safe. He might feel uneasy around sudden movements or loud noises at first, and it’s common to show independence as he adjusts. Small children`s unpredictability and fast movements might be too much for him and children in the home must be 6+ years old.
Darwin`s perfect match is someone willing to offer patience, a slow approach, and a quiet space to decompress. While he will need extra time to settle in, the reward of seeing him come out of his shell will be incredibly heartwarming. With regular vet care, Darwin can finally enjoy the healthy, happy lives he deserves.
Darwin is neutered, up to date on his vaccinations and is microchipped. He is ready for a loving family - could it be yours?
