Hello, I’m Clyde. Life here with my brothers is safe, but we dream of a quiet home. We’re a bit shy, clinging to each other for comfort in this new world. Gentle touches and soft voices help us feel secure. I spend my days observing, quietly hoping for a friend who understands the time it takes to trust. Adopting me means gaining a loyal companion who thrives on patience and love. Will you be my forever friend? Note from Paws humans: Clyde and his two brothers lived with a man for two years until he had to move into a special home where he could be cared for, and they did not allow pets. It was a major shock to these poor brothers to suddenly find themselves in an animal shelter, no matter how nice. During quarantine we tried to let them run lose in our Isolation Room, but they just crawled under the cages and hid. Once they finished quarantine we decided to move them to the Zen Meow room, as they clearly need a calm, quiet environment. Clyde is really making progress and comes out and sits on the shelves and windowsill in his room. He won't come up to you, but he readily lets you pet him.
