Hello there! My name is Riot, and I'm a shy young gentleman who's still getting comfortable with the world around me. I came to the shelter as a stray, but I'm learning that people can be wonderful friends once I warm up to them. I may take a little time to come out of my shell, but once I do, you'll discover I have a sweet and gentle nature just waiting to blossom. I'm looking for a patient human who understands that the best careers are built on trust, and I'm ready to build that trust with someone special. I thrive in calm environments where I can move at my own pace and explore at my own comfort level. Think of me as an employee working my way up to a corner office, and you'll be the mentor guiding me along the way. With time, quiet reassurance, and plenty of understanding, I know I'll blossom into the affectionate companion you've always wanted. If you're someone who appreciates a reserved fellow with a big heart and are willing to invest in our relationship, I'd love to meet you and start the next chapter of my story together! How did I get here? Found as a stray by a good Samaritan. **I have tested positive for FeLV (feline leukemia) - please speak with an adoption specialist for more information.** ~My adoption fee is waived.~
