Marshall is a striking cat who carries a bit of extra weight, making him a true gentle giant. He needs a patient home where he'll feel secure and loved. Previously part of a large colony of indoor cats, his life took an unfortunate turn; he was put outside by an owner suffering from dementia, which understandably left him feeling timid and scared. Despite his shyness, Marshall has shown remarkable progress. With a little time and patience from his caregivers, he begins to trust again. Once he feels comfortable, he revels in heavy head scratches and pets, returning that love with intense loyalty. Interestingly, he gets along quite well with kittens, adding a charming dynamic to his character. He deserves a nurturing home where he can truly be the star. To help him adjust to a new environment, Marshall will need to be kenneled initially, which will prevent him from hiding under or behind furniture. If you have the space in your heart and home for a big, lovable cat like Marshall, he could be the loyal companion you’ve been searching for. Click apply to start the adoption process.
