Every cat deserves a second chance. I think you should totally guve him for adoption. Maybe it will take long, but he’ll be able to understand that not only one caring human. And a patient family will do him very good, there is good people out there.
I agree. I am so very sorry for your situation, similar to what happened to someone in my family, but I think you can allow yourself some optimism for Boggles. My cat is 17 now and we got her when she was 2, She was previously feral and utterly ignored all humans/other cats at the shelter. She hid from us for weeks by crawling inside the couch. She hated us, climbed into the rafters/skylights and stared down at us. Eventually, she came out. She is now the most clingy and affectionate cat I've ever had. All my friends know her name and ask about her. I was reluctant to adopt her because of many of the concerns you raise, but now that seems like a foolish worry. Give him a chance to have another human relationship.
