Gerhardt's Story

Meet Gerhardt - the Shy Silver Panther With a Soft Heart<br/><br/>Gerhardt came to us from a hoarding situation, underweight and very scared, but he's blossomed into a sleek little silver panther in his foster home. He's still naturally shy, yet he's discovered that occasional voluntary lap time is pretty wonderful-and he's just as happy stretching out right beside you.<br/><br/>He has plenty of kitten energy and loves anything that moves. He's still learning not to chase toes or treat hands like toys, so he'll need a patient adopter who can gently guide him as he grows.<br/><br/>Gerhardt is currently living with dogs and would likely do well with a calm dog who gives him space. He'd thrive best in a quieter home where he can continue building confidence at his own pace. This sweet boy is still a work in progress, but watching him mature into the loving, secure cat he's meant to be will be incredibly rewarding.<br/><br/>If you're ready to help a shy, gentle soul blossom, Gerhardt might be the perfect match.<br/><br/>All our cats are spayed/neutered, dewormed, FELV tested, microchipped, receive prevention while in our care, and up to date on age-appropriate vaccines. If you're interested in adopting, please fill out an application on our website at https://www.sftsrescue.org/adoptable-cats
