Description
Meet Nemo, a tiny treasure with a big heart. This half–British Shorthair, half–Siamese boy was the runt of his litter, and he carries that gentle, sensitive soul with him wherever he goes. Born and raised indoors, Nemo is a naturally shy cat who needs time — at least a full week — to decompress and feel safe in a new environment. His adopter will need to keep him in a small room like a bathroom (without beds or couches) during that time to bond with him and let him feel comfortable while he adjusts. Once he chooses his human, though, everything changes. With a little patience (and a few Churu bribes), Nemo blossoms into a sweet, affectionate, playful companion who adores pets, playtime, and sticking close to the person he trusts most. Nemo gets along well with other friendly cats but is just as content being the only feline in the home. Because he’s sensitive to noise and lots of activity, he’ll thrive in a calm, low‑traffic household without children. If you’re looking for a loyal, loving little shadow who will bond deeply and wholeheartedly, Nemo is ready to give his whole heart to the right person. He will require lots of patience, love, and of course treats. This cat can be adopted with a friend or as a single cat.a
