Steve is a gentle soul who prefers to take life in the slow lane. While he is more reserved and shy when first adjusting to new surroundings, this handsome fellow is an absolute sweetheart who rewards your patience with the best and most comforting purrs you've ever heard. Because he is a sensitive guy who takes his time to build up his confidence, Steve will absolutely need a feline buddy in his new home to show him the ropes and keep him company. He thrives on the reassuring presence of another cat to help him feel secure. Since he appreciates a predictable routine over loud surprises, he would do well in a home with older children who understand his boundaries and know how to offer a slow, gentle approach as he settles in. If you have a patient heart and a friendly resident cat ready to welcome a quiet, deeply sweet companion, Steve is ready to start that beautiful journey with you!
