Take the Pet Home
Eddie (she's a female) had a home and then her owner surrendered her to the Trenton shelter. We think she is three. We're not sure what happened to this beautiful house panther but, we suspect she was mistreated in some way in her original home. She was very defensive and didn't like anyone when we got her months ago. When we get cats like this it breaks our hearts because we know humans caused the issue. Eddie got lucky, she got a fantastic foster mom who has an exceptional record working with cats like Eddie. After many months of working/living with her Eddie realized people are nice and no one is ever going to be mean to her again. It just took her some time to learn to trust humans again and forget about the bad place she lived in. She likes everyone she meets now. She loves getting petted, she just wants it to be on her terms (like most cats LOL). We think Eddie needs a calm home with adult people in it. Small kids would make her too nervous (we love them, but littles can be loud and are super high energy). This sweet girl is looking for a forever home and people who will love her the rest of her life. She deserves to have the good home she should have had from the beginning of her life. Could you be Eddie's person and give her the happy new beginning she deserves to have ?
If you'd like to meet this cat or think this cat would be a good match for your family, please complete our adoption questionnaire at http://www.trentoncats.org/adoption-questionnaire/ and let your references know someone will be contacting them soon. All our cats are neutered, up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations, dewormed and flea-treated, tested for FIV/FeLV, and microchipped prior to adoption. Thanks for opting to adopt!
