This pet needs emergency placement. Please click here to go to our emergency placement page for more information.Socks is on the emergency placement list due to behavior. She is not thriving in the care center and continues to display distance-increasing behavior when approached for interactions. Despite staff using treats to build a positive association, she has not warmed up. Due to her stress levels, moving out of the kennel environment and into a stable home as quickly as possible is in her best interest. She would do best in a home with adopters willing to give her plenty of time and space to adjust, and who have experience helping a fearful cat adjust to strangers.
Socks is an adult cat that may not have had many interactions with humans from an early age. She is apprehensive of people and while showing no aggressive behaviors, she tolerates attention and petting but may be fearful or stressed in the shelter, and may be intimidated by small children. Please be mindful that older cats will require more time and skill in order for them to be comfortable around people, we recommend offering high value treats and food to help build a positive association to humans. Due to the behaviors seen in the care center, we feel that this cat will do best in an experienced, adult only home.
