Gunner is a large, handsome tabby who’s lived a life outdoors. After spending years as a tomcat on the streets, he was taken in by a kind barn, and that simple act of kindness changed everything for this big guy. Gunner discovered the joys of indoor life: soft beds, gentle affection, and brushing (which he absolutely loves).

For a cat who had to fend for himself for so long, Gunner is surprisingly affectionate. He enjoys being close and soaking up attention, though he can still get spooked now and then—understandable, considering his rough start. He’s not a fan of mops or brooms (we suspect he’s been shooed away with them in the past), but offer him a brush and you’ll see him melt.

Gunner is now neutered and officially retired from tomcat duties. He’s embracing the quieter, easier life and we think he deserves a home that reflects that. He’s not suited for homes with young children or dogs, but a calm, patient environment would be perfect for him.

This big boy has the size of a streetwise survivor but underneath it all, he’s just a gentle soul looking for safety and love. His body is big, but we promise, his heart is even bigger.
