San Andreas, CA...We would like to introduce SHILOH, a handsome black and white tuxedo who is about a year old. He is at the shelter after being rescued from a home with unhealthy living conditions. Shiloh is our “shy boy.” But after lots of loving attention from shelter volunteers and staff, he is finally coming out of his shell. He is super sweet and gentle and has a calm, quiet personality. His adopter should expect it to take him a while to adjust to changes in a new environment. When Shiloh gets to know you, he is quite loving and can be very playful, especially with a toy on a cat wand. The white whiskers are his trademark.
