Hi! I'm Puddy Cat! Are you a super patient person with a home you'd like to share with a sweet young cat that would share your space well? Do you have a cat that would like a great companion and playmate?
That's me! I like to be around people, watching them, but not petted by them yet. I was born feral and have been around people for several months now so I am getting used to having people in my life. I am about one-year-old now as of July 2021 and I think growing up in a family would be the best thing to help me open up my heart completely.
To put it bluntly, I am shy. It makes me happiest to be around my fur-friends, so I think I would really enjoy a home with other cats. I live with, and get along with, all sorts of feline personalities. So, if you have a lonely kitty, or playful cat, in your home already, I will make a wonderful companion.
My only stipulation? I insist on being an indoor-only cat. I do want to become more confident and affectionate so, living indoors with you, will help me achieve my life goals. Did you set a goal to share your home with a deserving kitty-cat? Let's reach our goals together!! Come meet me soon! Love, Puddy Cat
