If you'd like to meet Mercedes, please read his full profile. Once you've done that and would like to move forward, we ask that you then visit our website to review our adoption process and requirements and schedule an on-site appointment. www.ggohinc.com Mercedes and his sister Porsche came to us as strays, trapped by one of our volunteers who noticed them hanging out behind her apartment complex. There were several cats in the area that were making their presence known so we assume they were strays that had wandered in from a local colony. Mercedes is friendly but shy and needs an adopter who is willing to work with him at his pace and not be frustrated easily if he takes more time to come out of his shell than expected (the adopter's expectations, not ours). We know that Mercedes will need time, love, and patience. We also know that Mercedes needs a kitty companion as that will ease his transition into a new home so he either needs to go to a home with another cat that will accept him or, be adopted with another cat from us that he is accustomed to. We think Mercedes would do fine in a home with dogs - well behaved dogs, not ones who like to chase kitties. We also believe he would do fine with older children who can understand his need to go slow (at least at first), but toddlers might be too much for him. Mercedes really is a sweet young fella. If he has caught your attention, why not come in and meet him and see if you feel a connection with him. He has so much potential! Mercedes has an approx. DOB of 6/12/2022.
