My name is Agate!

Meet Agate! “Agate and his brother, Onyx were found in a Culpeper backyard at just 4 months old. They were very bonded and Agate felt safe with Onyx. Sadly, Onyx passed away and Agate struggled for a while without him. He now has buddies that are both fosters and permanent cats at his foster home, whom he loves to play and snuggle. 

Agate is  handsome, long0haired tabby. He is that socially awkward shy and handsome guy that doesn’t know how handsome he is. He loves the company of other cats and is learning to trust people more and more. He is. VERY  friendly and charming. At dinner time, he head butts and rubs up against his foster mom in an effort to get as much wet food as he can. During the rest of the day, though Agate is more skittish and may startle if approached too quickly . He appears to be more comfortable around men than women, but, as mentioned earlier, does well with his foster mom. It's hard to say what happened to this poor baby in his past to make him so shy. 

Agate would be most comfortable in a quiet, low to medium level energy home. He will need a patient human or family who understands that he is shy and will  give him the time he needs to acclimate. He will need another cat or two who he can snuggle with and be buddy up with in his new home. He would love to have living space where he can have some hiding places and taller areas to survey the world from. “

Agate is dewormed, up to date on his FVCRP and Rabies vaccines, neutered, combo tested negative, and is microchipped with a lifetime registration. Please think of giving this sweet boy a warm and loving home for the holidays. You won't regret it. GoodMews22@aol.com or call 540.717.4420.
