My story

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

Hello! My name is Wolcott and I'm the sweetest scaredy cat you'll ever meet. I am a very handsome 1 year old boy with beautiful amber eyes and long black fluffy fur that I spend my time meticulously grooming. As such, my fur is always silky and soft, but I always adore being brushed by my humans anyways.

I am very shy and easily frightened, that's my nature, but I've learned that I am capable of building trust with my humans. Once I trust you, I really adore attention. First thing in the morning every day, I greet my foster mom and rub against her legs until she can sit with me on the floor and give me lots of pets. I love to play and chase toys, and can move impressively fast when on the hunt (and also when I slightly over-react to a sudden movement or a loud noise). To me, humans are so tall and intimidating, so I really feel safest when people get down on the floor with me to interact at first. I might seem fearful, but I am actually very brave because I face my fears every day to enjoy the love and companionship of my foster parents. I am a very sweet kitty and I am excited to find my forever home.

Wolcott would do best with an owner that works from home so he can have lots of time to get familiar with you and learn your daily routines. He would not do well with young children. He loves other cats and would do best in a household with another cat to be playmates with. He takes time to build his trust with new people, so he needs a very patient and loving owner, who finds joy in gaining a cat's trust and slowly building a lifelong bond that will reward both you and Wolcott.
