Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now! Meet Sage, a striking black cat who has been patiently waiting for his forever family since he arrived as a kitten with his siblings. At around five years old, Sage has gradually started to interact more with people, especially as his environment has become quieter. He is best suited for adopters who have experience with cats and can offer a calm, patient home where Sage can settle in at his own pace. If you offer gentle encouragement and plenty of space, Sage will come to you for soothing grooming and pets. However, he is likely to remain a more independent companion who may not greet you at the door or be a constant lap cat—and that's perfectly fine. Sage is ready to blossom in the right environment where his individual needs are respected. They are waiting with paws crossed! Apply now!
