My story

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

Meet Spike — A Shy Sweetheart Who Blossoms with Kitty Friends

Spike is a shy but sweet, playful kitty looking for a quiet, indoor-only home where he can feel safe and take life at his own pace. He may start off a little reserved, but with patience and the right environment, Spike’s gentle personality begins to shine.

One thing Spike absolutely needs is other friendly, social cats in the home—they help him feel confident, comfortable, and brave. He does well with respectful teens who understand boundaries. His experience with dogs is unknown, so a calm, dog-free home (or very slow introductions) would be best.

Spike’s Must-Haves:
Plenty of comfy hiding and napping spots
Cat trees & scratching posts for climbing and confidence
Window perches for quiet bird-watching
Tons of toys, especially interactive and catnip-filled ones

Favorite Things:
Treats, wet food, catnip, gentle playtime, and hanging out near his feline friends

Spike is ready to bloom in a patient home full of love and kitty companionship.
