About Denny

Denny is a shy but handsome 9-year-old male brown tabby who came to the Chesapeake Cats and Dogs rescue after losing his owner. Having spent several months in an empty house with other cats but no human interaction, he needs a calm environment to thrive. You might catch him peeking out of his cubby when it’s quiet, showing that he does have a curious side. He’s in good health—fully vaccinated, neutered, and microchipped—though he has a dental procedure scheduled for October. Denny is looking for a quiet home where he can regain his confidence, so patience will be essential for his new family. With time and love, he will learn to trust again. If you think you can give Denny the loving home he deserves, reach out to adopt him today!
