Catty is a tender, sensitive soul who’s trying his very best to understand a world that still feels a little too big and a little too loud. Once you meet him, you can see the sweetness under all that worry. He’s gentle, quiet, and deeply observant, taking everything in with those soft, searching eyes.
He’s been overwhelmed in the shelter, and it shows in the way he freezes at doorways, tucks his tail, or hesitates when someone reaches toward him. But even in his fear, Catty shows these tiny, hopeful glimmers: following a confident dog friend for reassurance, leaning in for a chin scratch, taking treats with the softest mouth, or checking in with a volunteer just to make sure they’re still there. He’s curious about other dogs, polite at the fence, and seems to feel braver with a calm canine companion nearby.
Catty is the kind of dog who will blossom slowly, quietly, and beautifully in a patient home, one that understands that trust is built in inches, not miles. A peaceful environment, gentle handling, and maybe a confident dog buddy would help him feel safe enough to let his true personality unfold. Once he does, you’ll have the privilege of watching a scared boy discover joy, comfort, and connection for the very first time.
He’s not the dog who runs into your arms on day one but he is the dog who will love you with his whole heart once he knows he’s finally home.
