Bogyo - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption

What my friends at ACC say about me:
I am looking for a home with a patient person.
I'm sensitive and shy. I'll need extra help from you.
I'm an independent kitty who likes to do my own thing.
I have potential behavior challenges that staff will address with you when you meet me. Ask about my history in my last home.
I can be slow to adjust to new environments. I prefer to take things at my own pace.
I will flourish in a calm environment and a low-traffic home.
I would appreciate slow introductions to new people and places to help me feel safe.
I would do best in a home with only adult humans.
My favorite pastime is being visually admired! Pet me with your eyes!
I prefer to call the shots and enjoy coming to you when I'm ready for pets.
I love to be loved, but on my own terms! Cheek and chin scratches make me so happy! Let's brush up on some feline body language together!
I love to play and will need appropriate toys and positive outlets for my energy.
Boygo tolerates some attention and short periods of petting before becoming over stimulated, and may be fearful or stressed in the shelter. He​ may be a little more independent, and may need time to warm up to ​his new home. He may be intimidated by small children, and due to the behaviors seen in the care center as well as his behavior challenges, we feel that this cat will do best in an experienced, adult only home.
