About Phoenix
Phoenix is the type of cat who flies under the radar, but that doesn’t mean he’s short on appeal. He’s a three-year-old with sharp orange and white markings who’s kept his distance most of his life. Shy at first, Phoenix prefers to scope out new situations from a safe spot. If you visit, odds are he’ll vanish before you walk in the door. Still, he’s made clear progress—at the rescue, he’s relaxed enough to ask for a belly rub or a careful scratch under the chin when the mood strikes. Phoenix won’t ever be a typical lap cat, but give him time and he’ll bond deeply with the right person. He’s not demanding, doesn’t want fuss or expectations, just a low-key home where he can finally drop his guard. He gets along well with other cats and would likely do best in a household with another feline for company. Phoenix deserves his shot at happiness as much as any outgoing cat. Ready to fall in love?
