Zeus

My foster family calls me Zeus/ Zuzu, and while my name sounds like I should be ruling from a mountaintop, I’ve spent most of my life just trying to find a safe place to land.<br/><br/>To be honest, the world has been a pretty scary place for me. When we first meet, I might tuck myself away or watch you from a distance. I’m a shy guy at heart—but please don't let that stop you. If you reach out with a gentle hand, you’ll find that I am a world-class snuggler just waiting for a reason to come out of my shell. My foster family says I am the definition of “shy but worth the wait”<br/><br/>I love affection so much that I’ve even surprised myself! One day, I saw a German Shepherd and a Boxer getting pets from their owner, and I decided my need for love was bigger than my fear of dogs. I marched right over to join the huddle. Now, those big dogs are my best friends, and I’m happy to hang out with other cats, too.<br/><br/>Here is what you need to know about me:<br/><br/>*The Way to My Heart: Scratches, treats, and toys (in that order!).<br/><br/>*My Specialty: I am a professional lap cat. If you’re sitting, I’m fitting. Also, I am a cuddle expert and a decent dance partner.<br/><br/>*My personality: I’m a gentle soul—so gentle that even when I’m given medication, I stay calm. At first, I might seem a little shy, but that’s only because I like to take my time getting to know someone. Once I feel safe and comfortable, my true self shines through—sweet, curious, smart, and quietly affectionate.<br/><br/>*My home: I will need a few quiet spots where I can retreat if I feel overwhelmed.<br/><br/>*Fur-Siblings: I’d love a home with another cat or a gentle dog to show me the ropes!<br/><br/>*Play Style: I am an active and playing boy once I feel safe. I’m still learning how to be a "pet," so watching me discover a feather wand for the first time was adorable.<br/><br/>*Companionship: I’m a loud companion who sounds like a tiny motorboat.<br/><br/>*My Promise: Once I know I’m safe, I will become your shadow. I’ll follow you everywhere just to make sure you’re never lonely.<br/><br/>I might need a little extra patience and a lot of love to start my new chapter, but I promise I am 'all in.' I just want to stop being a community cat and start being your cat.
