Meet the enchanting Clyde, a truly handsome boy with a gentle charm that can melt even the iciest of hearts! 😻 Born on October 1, 2008, this lovely fella has quite the story. He arrived at the Refuge with his brother Barney, spending much of their early years exploring the wild expanses of life before they were introduced to the welcoming arms of the Goathouse community. Although initially a bit shy and remote, Clyde has blossomed with maturity, now spending more time inside and showing a curious spark for interacting with his human friends - especially if a photo op is involved! 📸 Clyde is one of our precious 'Cats for Patient Cat People,' and let me tell you, he truly benefits from some tender, one-on-one love from a kind human who can help him overcome his shyness in these golden years. He’s a wonderful cuddle bug who will give you the sweetest poses while savoring gentle hand sniffs. While he’s navigating through his introverted side, he’s eagerly waiting for that special someone who understands that forming a bond takes time, patience, and a peaceful atmosphere. And here’s something extraordinary: Clyde’s adoption fee has been generously sponsored, which means he can come home with you for FREE! That's right, you can splash that saved money on all the delightful goodies—think toys, fancy food, and even some cozy litter! 🎉 Clyde is seeking a serene and loving home, ideally without children under the age of 16, so that he can truly thrive. He requires a peaceful environment and safe restricted access to the outdoors—a screened porch or a cat-proofed area would be just purrfect for him. If you think you can be the gentle soul Clyde is looking for, he’s waiting for you! Apply to adopt this special boy through the Buddy App now, and let the magic begin! 🐾✨
