My story

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

Shoelace, the timid and reserved kitty, seeks a serene and peaceful indoor-only sanctuary to call home. This sweet feline harbors a shy disposition and is currently in search of a tranquil environment devoid of children. She may do okay with calm dogs who can respect her space. Shoelace yearns for a patient and understanding household, offering the space and time needed for this shy kitty to settle in comfortably. Despite initial hesitancy, Shoelace shows signs of a gentle and friendly nature, hinting at a desire to form a loving bond once feeling secure and settled in the right environment.
This affectionate cat finds joy in the simple pleasures of life, reveling in the delights of wet food, treats, and an array of engaging toys. Shoelace's heart lights up when presented with stimulating toys and dry catnip, showcasing a playful side that emerges when in a comfortable and safe setting. As Shoelace takes the time to acclimate and adjust, a patient and caring family willing to provide love, understanding, and the comforts Shoelace adores will undoubtedly witness the blossoming of a deeply affectionate and cherished companion.
