About Gray

Gray is a beautiful adult male cat who spent most of his life outdoors before coming to our shelter. He arrived quite thin and dealing with worms, but thanks to thorough care, he’s now a little chunkier and thriving. Gray enjoys lounging on cat trees and has settled into a more comfortable life, hiding under blankets during his adjustment period. While he doesn’t shy away from his human friends, he still feels nervous and would thrive in a calm, quiet home. He gets along well with other cats, making him a gentle companion in a multi-cat household. However, he does not get along with dogs or children, so he is best suited to an adult-only environment. A patient adopter who can offer him the time he needs to adjust and feel secure will be ideal. You can visit him Wednesday through Sunday from noon to 3 PM, and Saturdays until 4 PM.
