My story

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

What my friends at ACC say about me:


I would do best in a home without very tiny humans, although I could be open to older human children once I meet them.


I have lived with cats in my previous home.


I am finding the shelter a little overwhelming, but when it's just you and me and some peace and quiet you'll see what a love bug I am.


I am looking for a home with a patient person.


I can be slow to adjust to new environments. I prefer to take things at my own pace.


I will flourish in a calm environment and a low-traffic home.


I'm sensitive and shy. I'll need extra help from you.



Lucky Kentucky tolerates attention and petting but appears fearful or stressed in the shelter. He may be a little more independent and may need time to warm up to his new home. We recommend this cat go to a home with experienced cat parents. Due to the behavior shown, he may not be a great fit for young children. Any home with older children prepared to adopt this cat should conduct a thorough interaction and endeavor to monitor this cat around their children to prevent these behaviors from being reinforced.



A volunteer writes: Giving everyone the chance to admire his toys, Lucky Kentucky stretches out with his beautiful collection carefully circled around him. I love the way whatever game this is doubles as a chance to display them all. He probably has the nicest toys the Care Center has to offer, but only the vaguest interest in traditional playtime. Everyone seems to bring him the prettiest ones so that Lucky Kentucky can arrange his newest acquisition with his practiced eye. He's very particular with his organization. He's particular about a few things actually. Lucky Kentucky hasn't really been one for pets at the shelter, so his look with your eyes and not with your hands approach to his toys seems to also extend to himself as he keeps an eye out on his toys and Adoptions. Waiting for someone to notice his collection and take a chance on him, Lucky Kentucky is hoping to meet you soon.
