How Long Until a Rescue Dog Feels at Home?
Understand the 3-3-3 Rule for rescue dog adjustment, but learn to read your dog's unique cues and know when to seek professional help.
Martin is a charming grey tabby with handsome stripes and a gentle soul. He's the kind of cat who enjoys being near his people—lounging nearby, supervising daily activities, and offering quiet companionship. Martin has a sweet, curious nature and a calm presence that makes any room feel more relaxed. He loves cozy naps, watching the world from a window, and showing affection in his own mellow way.
As an American Shorthair, Martin embodies the breed's reputation for being adaptable and good-natured companions. They are known for their easygoing temperament, intelligence, and generally low-maintenance grooming needs. Martin's short coat requires minimal care, and his moderate shedding can be managed with regular brushing. His energy and exercise needs are on the lower side, making him a perfect fit for a relaxed home environment.
Martin would do great in a home looking for a friendly, easygoing cat who brings warmth and comfort without demanding the spotlight. He's likely to thrive in a calm household where he can enjoy quiet companionship and plenty of window-watching opportunities. This gentle tabby is neutered and up-to-date on his FVRCP, Rabies, Deworming, and Flea/Tick treatments, and is also microchipped, ready to settle into his forever home.
