**Breed - Domestic Shorthair

Color - Black

Sex - Male**

Calix is a silky black domestic shorthair around 2 years old. He carries a sense of resilience from his time spent without a family—but it’s only made him more appreciative of the comfort he’s been waiting for. His name, of Greek origin meaning “very beautiful” and referring to the protective outer layer of a budding flower, suits him perfectly. Calix has a gentle, watchful nature—he may start off a bit reserved, but beneath that layer is a warm companion ready to bloom in the right home. He’s the kind of cat who will quietly keep you company, observing the world with thoughtful eyes, and gradually leaning into trust. With a little patience and kindness, Calix will unfold into the wonderful friend he was always meant to be.
