My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Such great markings, and so very much potential to be a fabulous companion when she learns to be comfortable! This precious girl was found as a stray from Gorham, and what she underwent before she arrived here could not have been pleasant. She curls into a small, scared ball when she’s unsure or insecure in a situation. Cat charmers startle her. Mostly, it appears that she’s not used to humans, or she has either learned to be wary of their intentions. Here’s the low down. During her evaluation, she did a really cool thing when greeted in her cage – she rolled over! She didn’t approach, but she did indicate a desire to want some contact. In the evaluation room, she did come out of the carrier on her own, but she explored in a cautious manner, and checked in with the evaluator to try to understand what was expected of her. When gently patted, she was initially afraid, but then she warmed up to it, which is a great sign. She is interested in play, but obviously has never been played with, as she looked on from a distance. She is not quite ready for hugs, and she’s sensitive when touched unexpectedly. But don’t pass her by because she’s timid. She needs a special person with some cat sense to bring her out of her shell. Give her some room of her own at first and let her come to you, and one of the true sweet relationships of your life could begin.
