At 5 years old, Mr. Big is a striking, longhaired gentleman whose shyness makes him especially endearing. He needs an adopter who won't rush him and understands that trust takes time. Mr. Big is still figuring people out, but with the right approach—gentle encouragement, a calm home, and a few treats—he will show glimpses of affection. Trusted volunteers have managed to pet him, a sign that his walls are coming down little by little. He does best in a quiet space and flourishes when given the room to come forward at his own speed. Mr. Big gets along with other cats but isn’t suited to homes with children. He'd do best with someone sensitive to his timid side and ready to watch his confidence grow. Born May 21, 2020, this makes him a Gemini, which might explain his curiosity mixed with caution. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
