Boxy has a gentle, understated charm and tends to be shy when meeting new people. It took him months to warm up to his favorite human at the shelter, but once he trusts you, he becomes a steady, affectionate presence—content to keep your paperwork warm and quietly lounge across your laptop. He'd rather not be picked up, but once that bond is forged, a kiss on the head is fair game. Treats work wonders in coaxing him out of his shell, especially in the early days. Boxy thrives in a calm, quiet home where his trust can grow at his own pace. He's friendly with other cats, but isn't suited for a house with small children; older teens are okay. If you’re looking for a laid-back companion who will reward your patience with real affection, Boxy fits the bill. Arrangements must be made in advance to meet him in person, and his adoption fee is $80. Boxy is neutered, microchipped, has tested negative for FIV/FeLV, and his vaccinations are current. Fun fact: Boxy's birthday is June 17th, which makes him a caring and adaptable Gemini—an adaptable spirit, just waiting for the right person to make his forever home. Start your journey together!
