What my friends at ACC say about me:
I have feline leukemia and am living my life to the fullest!
I would appreciate slow introductions to new people and places to help me feel safe.
I love to be loved, but on my own terms! Let's brush up on some feline body language together!
Meet Kuti!Kuti came to the shelter after living in a home with other cats. She is a shy but gentle cat who may try to avoid contact at first, but with time and patience she can warm up and become affectionate. Kuti prefers to observe her surroundings before engaging and does best when allowed to interact on her own terms.
My Ideal HomeKuti would thrive in a calm, patient home where she is given time to settle in and build trust. Adopters who understand shy or reserved cats and are comfortable letting her set the pace for interaction will help her feel safe and confident. A quiet environment with predictable routines would be ideal.
Good with Kids?Unknown. Kuti does not have experience with children and would likely do best in a home with adults or older, respectful teens who understand cat body language.
Good with Other Pets?Yes, with time. Kuti has lived with other cats and can be friendly and social once she has had time to warm up. Slow, thoughtful introductions are recommended. She has no known experience with dogs.
Overall HealthKuti is FeLV positive and has dental disease that will require a dental procedure once placed. She is currently comfortable with pain management and is otherwise stable. Adopters should be prepared to work with a veterinarian to continue her dental care and overall wellness.
Behavior DeterminationExperienced adopters recommended. Kuti is shy and avoidant at first but tolerates handling and care. She will do best with adopters who understand how to support a reserved cat as she adjusts to a new environment.
Other Fun FactsKuti enjoys quiet companionship, toys, and spending time near her people while maintaining her independence. She loves Friskies treats, has only lived indoors, and is comfortable using any type of litter or litter box.
