This handsome fellow is the Wizard, who was rescued along with several other cats from an unsafe and unsanitary hoarding situation in December 2008.
Like many cats that come from hoarders, Wizard was traumatized and very timid, as his experiences with people were not very positive. However, we placed him in dedicated foster home where he stayed for over a year while the family worked with him to reduce his shyness and fear.
Just a few weeks ago, Wizard - now Raymond- was adopted into a kind home with a cat-loving couple who understood and accepted his timidity and were prepared to give him the time and patience he needed to settle in and become a true pet. As these pictures attest, he is making rapid progress in his new home and we are thrilled to see this lovely boy safe, relaxed and content in loving environment after such a rough start in life.
This demonstrates that even very timid cats can overcome their fear with enough time and patience. Sadly, not every timid cat is given the chance to come around the way Wizard did. We are very glad we were able to give him this opportunity.
