Black Jack is a big, handsome black cat with a tender heart. Right now he's feeling very scared and unsure of the world around him. He spent eight years with the same person, and being surrendered has been a big change for him, so it's understandable that he's feeling overwhelmed. Because of this, Black Jack can come across as very shy and may even growl when he's nervous. But if you speak softly to him and take things slow, you'll discover the incredibly sweet cat underneath. Once he feels safe, he becomes affectionate, loving, and his loud, happy purr is impossible to miss. Black Jack does very well with other cats and may enjoy having a feline friend in his new home. What he needs most is a patient adopter who will give him the time and understanding he deserves. With a little kindness and a gentle approach, Black Jack will reward you with a whole lot of love.
