Meet sweet Fernando - our little diamond in the rough. Fernando has had quite the journey at WHS. He came to us in a trap, very fearful, and avoidant of human touch. Fernando now chirps for attention and rolls over to show his belly for lots of chin scritches. Fernando is the type of cat who will likely take longer to adjust into his new home, but will 100% be worth the wait. This big guy has a lot of love to give, just be sure you're ready to receive it as it comes! He'd do best in a quiet, low-key household with lots of hidey beds and treats!
