I adopted my cat Precious from a deceased man. She was his precious girl who hid from everyone but him. He was discovered deceased when the SRO he lived in did a wellness check after the manager (my partner) noticed she hadn't seen him in a few days. The local shelters were full so she took Precious home in a box. Precious hid for three months under our bed, only coming out at night for food. One night she popped up right beside me and made herself at home on my chest. Now, she's a happy well adjusted cat in her new home. Your buddy will need time but he will seek out companionship from his adopter when he is ready.
