Until that one particular person entered his life and forever changed it, this frightened ginger cat spent the majority of his time at the shelter hiding in a box.
He was totally out of his shell three hours after adoption!
The shelter gave the ginger boy his first name, Gabe. Until a young woman entered his world and began speaking to him and referring to him as Mr. Tumnus, he was far too afraid to leave his box.
“He didn’t reply to Gabe, but when I call for Mr. Tumnus, he starts to emerge from his cat cave!
“We only went to the shelter to play with cats since we planned to adopt one in the future. I’ve always adored huge orange cats, and when I spotted him, he nuzzled me with his head before climbing up onto my shoulder, a Reddit user named kaneick reported to Love Meow.
He had been at the shelter for a month at this time, and we had spent the entire week thinking about him. The next weekend, we returned. We adopted him even though he wouldn’t leave his cage at the time since we could see his potential! “, said her.
These photos were taken in the’safe room’ we created for him in his new home.
He has a cave that we created for him out of his cat carrier and a drop cloth.
“When we initially found him, he would retreat into his cave at the sound of a big disturbance. He now views us as his “safe zone” and will come to us rather than go to his cave almost a week after we brought him home.
