Basil

😺 Loves other cats, and would love to be adopted with another cat or into a home with a feline friend or two.
🐶 Untested with dogs, but would likely be fine with a slow introduction.
👶 Great with kids, as long as they're gentle and not overly loud
🏠 Strictly indoors only (a fully enclosed, professionally installed catio is fine)

Sugar meter: 🍬🍬🍬🍬🍬/5

Meet Basil, a beautiful boy with an incredibly gentle and peaceful nature. He's such a quiet little soul that you might sometimes forget he's there, happily tucked away in his favourite spot under the sofa or quietly keeping you company as you go about your day. But call his name and he'll come out to greet you, rubbing himself against you for some much-loved affection. He may not be a fan of being picked up, but he absolutely adores being petted and will happily enjoy gentle pats from his favourite people.

With his gorgeous, soft and fluffy coat and calm personality, Basil is a wonderfully soothing companion who brings comfort and joy simply by being around. He's a very quiet boy who rarely makes a sound and seems happiest sharing peaceful moments with his humans. Give him a little time to settle in and the chance to enjoy affection on his own terms, and you'll discover a sweet companion who is more than happy to quietly be by your side.

(Psst... If you're looking for a cat with particular personality traits, get in touch with our team of volunteers at Sugar & Spice Cat Rescue and we'll pair you with your ideal match! 💜)

‼️As with most cats in a new environment or with new people, he may be slightly shy at first, but give him some time and treats and he’s sure to come around.
