My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

DOB: 6/2023

Some artists are born ahead of their time, their genius overlooked, their brilliance waiting for the right eyes to truly see them. Matisse, a 1.5-year-old gray tabby, is one such soul—an enigmatic masterpiece, a work in progress, a vision of quiet beauty.

Transferred to Colony Cats from another shelter, Matisse was given a second chance—a blank canvas upon which to paint his future. At first glance, he may seem reserved, studying the world with the careful eye of a true artist. But spend a little time, earn his trust, and you'll find yourself at the heart of something rare and beautiful: a tender, affectionate soul who simply needed the right audience.

Like all great artists, Matisse doesn’t demand attention—he invites it, subtly, elegantly. He’s looking for someone who sees beyond the surface, someone who appreciates the depth of a quiet, loving companion.

Will you be the one to complete his masterpiece?

Come meet me at the cage-free Adoption Center! All cats are spayed or neutered, vaccinated and tested for FIV/FeLV. **If interested in adopting me, please fill out an online adoption application at https://colonycats.org/adoption_app.html to expedite the process. Due to the large number of inquiries received, we are unable to respond to emails quickly.**
