Cinder

My story

Cinder’s story is one of hope and gentle transformation. Alongside his siblings—Marble, Ziggy, and Butterscotch—he was rescued from the harshness of street life at just four months old. Now safe, this striking grey tabby captivates with his brilliant amber-green eyes and a calm, tender soul that is slowly opening up, day by day, to the kindness of people. Though he’s still learning to trust, Cinder’s progress is truly inspiring. He’s embracing the comforts of indoor living—unlimited food and fresh water, heaps of toys, and endless hours of “Cat TV”—all the simple joys he was never guaranteed before. With each gentle touch, Cinder is discovering that he can feel safe, loved, and at ease. This sweet boy’s heart is won over by tasty treats, especially anything lickable, and he’s motivated by patience and understanding. With time, Cinder will surely blossom into the confident, cuddly companion he’s meant to be—a loving lap cat, eager for warmth and connection. Like any playful teenager, he delights in running, jumping, pouncing, and play-fighting with his littermates. For his continued happiness, Cinder would thrive being adopted with one of his siblings or joining a home with a friendly cat close to his age (around 1–3 years).

Cinder is ready to trust, to love, and to shine in a furever home that truly understands him. January 20, 2026, 8:54 pm
