Hi there, my name is Emoticon, but my friends call me Moti for short. I'm a quiet and introverted guy looking for a peaceful home with a human or two to share my life with.
I'm going to be real with you for a minute. I'll never be the life of the party. When the doorbell rings, I'm going to hide (tell the DoorDash driver to leave our dinner at the door, please!) There's a new person at our house? Hide. A scary sound? Straight to my favorite hiding spot. Your friends may not believe you that you even have a cat. It'll be okay though, because when it's just us, that's when my affectionate and silly personality really shines through!
Once I am comfortable with you (and that's going to take some time), I have absolutely no concept of personal space, and will happily crawl all over you while purring and nuzzling you. In exchange, I request snuggles, snacks, and kisses applied directly to my perfectly fuzzy forehead.
Being a cat, staying well-rested is my top priority, but in my off hours, I love to get my energy out chasing a laser pointer, or any type of dangly toy. I've also been known to hit the 'nip on occasion to really elevate my playtime experience.
I get along well with most other cats, but I'd also be okay being your sole cat companion.
If I sound like your idea of a purrfect pet, please give SVASC a call at (540) 943-5142, or email SVASC at tmeadows@co.augusta.va.us so they can put you in touch with my foster family and set up a time for us to meet.

More about this shelter
Shenandoah Valley Animal Services Center is an open admissions animal shelter and is home to dozens of animals looking for their forever homes. We are a Municipal pound for Augusta County, Staunton, and Waynesboro so we take in all strays, abandoned animals, and owner surrenders. We have 40 dog runs and about 85 cat cages.
The Shenandoah Valley Animal Services Center began operation in September of 2011. Since opening, we have successfully lowered the euthanasia rates for our community! Our shelter's current save rate is 95 percent, which is the direct result of our dedicated staff and volunteers working hard to finding these animals their forever homes. Please call the shelter with any questions regarding animals found on the website for more information.
We offer help to our community through education and assistance. With the help of other organizations we are able to spay/neuter animals in our community that the owners could otherwise not afford. With the help of our community we are on a mission to save every adoptable animal in our area.
