Meet Marlin 🐾
Marlin is a sweet, sensitive cat with a quiet presence and a heart full of love. He’s currently settling into a foster home, where he's slowly but surely showing his gentle personality. While he may be shy at first, with patience and kindness, Marlin blossoms into a devoted companion who finds comfort simply being near his people.

He came from a home that was noisy and overwhelming—especially with dogs around—which left him feeling a bit uncertain. Now, he’s looking for a peaceful, dog-free environment where he can truly relax and feel safe.

Marlin used to live with his more outgoing brother, Nemo, and now it's his time to shine. He’s ready to step into the spotlight and thrive on his own terms.

He enjoys the simple pleasures: lounging in sunny spots, watching the world from a cozy window perch, and curling up for quiet naps. If you have a calm home and a kind heart, Marlin will reward you with gentle affection, quiet companionship, and the steady warmth of trust earned.

History
Marlin was surrendered when his previous owner could no longer care for him.
