Phyllis is a large, black domestic short hair who came into the rescue system from a city impound. At around six or seven years old, she still carries a little shyness, especially around new people. Patience is important with Phyllis, as she tends to hang back at first and can be a bit feisty when she's feeling unsure. She thrives in a quiet space where routines stay calm — that's where she'll start to settle in, realize she's safe, and come out of her shell. Over time, that trust builds and she should get comfortable in her surroundings. If you're looking for a cat who prefers a gentle world at her pace, Phyllis could be the right match.
