Hi, I'm Meredith! Yes... I am a boy with a very distinguished name. I'm a long-haired blue-gray gentleman with big worried eyes. The shelter has been pretty scary for me, so I usually sit very still and hope everything settles down around me. The important thing to know is I'm not mean at all - I never hiss, swat, or bite. I'm just shy and unsure right now. I would love a quiet home with a patient person who understands that I just need a little time. Once I realize I'm safe, I'll start following you around and being your gentle little companion. I won't be the cat who jumps in your lap on day one... but I will be the one who bonds deeply and loves you forever.
