Antonio

Some friendships are built slowly, one paw at a time. Our shy boy, Antonio, is waiting for someone who will give him the chance to shine. He is 1.5-2 years old and came into our care as part of the Vineyard Cats, a group of young semi-feral cats from our partner shelter on the island. He may be a bit of a slow burner compared to some of his friends, but Antonio reminds us that the best things are worth waiting for. <br/><br/>Antonio is a quiet sweetheart with a heart full of potential. He is blossoming at his own pace and, while still timid and a look-but-don't-touch kind of guy, Antonio's happy to keep you company from a distance. He no longer hides when people are nearby and will even lean in for a curious hand sniff. While some of his shelter mates are busy zooming around, Antonio is content living life in the slow lane. His favourite spot is perched up on a ledge out on the Catio, where he can soak up the sunshine, enjoy a catnap, and watch the birds go by. Antonio has made such wonderful progress, and he's looking for a furrever family who will help him continue that journey. He'll thrive with cat-savvy adopters who are happy to let him blossom in his own time and celebrate all the little moments along the way. A calm adult-only home would be best, though older children who are gentle and respectful may be okay. A "must-have" for Antonio is a feline friend! It would be extra special for him to be adopted with one of his Vineyard pals so that he has a familiar face to share his new home with. Antonio is healthy and great with his litter box. <br/><br/>Antonio may not be the outgoing cat in the room, but he has a quiet charm that draws you in and makes you want to get to know him. To learn more about Antonio or to arrange a visit to the shelter, please reach out or fill out an application. You are also welcome to visit us during our Open House, held every Saturday and Sunday from 12 -2 pm.
