Galileo's Story

Meet Galileo – The Cosmic Moon Bear in Cat Form! ??<br/><br/>Galileo isn’t just any cat—he’s a one-year-old moon bear in disguise! With his sleek black fur and a striking white crescent on his chest, he looks like he was born to explore galaxies (or at least your living room).<br/><br/>This shy but gentle boy came from a hoarding case where he lived with many other cats. Because of his past, he takes a little extra time to warm up to new people and surroundings. He’s not a hiss-or-swat kind of guy—he simply prefers to watch from a safe distance until he feels ready to join in.<br/><br/>One thing that truly helps Galileo shine? Other cats! He draws confidence from feline friends and will need at least one friendly, outgoing kitty in his new home to help him feel secure. If you’re looking for a perfect pair, he absolutely adores his buddy Sputnik—adopting them together would be a stellar match.<br/><br/>With patience, love, and space to orbit at his own pace, Galileo will reward you with the quiet, steady companionship of a cat who’s learned to trust. His forever home is out there—could it be with you?<br/><br/>Please be sure to read a cat's full bio before applying! We do our best to keep bios updated as we learn more about each cat or as circumstances change. The bio is the best place to find the most current and important information about their needs, personality, and ideal home.<br/><br/>Thank you for your interest in adopting from Scruffy Paws Animal Rescue!
