Martin spent months outside before a volunteer earned his trust. At first, he might rumble or growl quietly, more out of nerves than aggression, but gentle words bring out a different side. This soft grey cat soon leans into cheek and ear scratches, showing a sweetness he has kept hidden. Right now, Martin hides from new people or noises, preferring to stay out of sight until he feels safe. He doesn’t yet know how he’ll feel about other cats, dogs, or children, so he’d do best with someone ready to give him space and patience. Martin looks far too put-together to have been outside long; maybe he wasn’t always a stray. It feels like he’s only just learning what a gentle hand can offer. With patience, he reveals a gentle, loving nature and promises to be a devoted companion once he trusts you. Martin is still young and handsome, needing calm and kindness as he settles into a quieter home. Pisces by birth, he’s all heart beneath the nerves. Give him time, and you’ll find a loyal friend for life. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
