Hi, I'm Teddy 💙 I showed up at a country home in London, Ohio, and it turns out I have quite a story. I had a microchip that traced back about 8 miles away, where I was originally a TNR (trap-neuter-return) cat with a caretaker at one point. Because I'm pretty shy and a little unsure around people, I wasn't originally considered for adoption. But here's the thing... I just need a little time. Once I learn to trust you and feel safe, I melt into your touch and purr up a storm. I may be quiet at first, but there's a sweet, loving boy underneath it all just waiting to come out. My rescuer believes with her whole heart that with the right, patient person, I'm going to turn into a big teddy bear--and I think she's right. 🐻💙 If you're someone who understands shy cats and is willing to give me the time I need, I promise I'll be worth it
