Stuart has spent years finding his place and has finally started trusting the world. Once shy, he’s now the friendly greeter in his free-roaming cat room, quietly observing new visitors before inching forward to collect his share of chin scratches. He’s made solid friendships in his room, especially with a timid cat named Callie, and coexists peacefully with his female roommates. Stuart is still getting used to being picked up and prefers attention on his own terms, but patience goes a long way with him. At 6 years old, he’s ready for a relaxed adult home that understands his gentle spirit. Having another cat companion—perhaps one he already knows—would make the transition easier for him. Stuart would thrive somewhere calm, with understanding people and maybe a familiar friend at his side. They are ready to love you; are you ready to apply?
