My story

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

Meet Patches — A Soft-Hearted Sweetie with a Playful Spark

Patches is a very shy but incredibly sweet and playful kitty who’s looking for a quiet, indoor-only home where she can feel safe, secure, and loved at her own gentle pace. She may take time to settle in, but with patience and kindness, her playful little personality begins to shine.

She seems to do well with respectful teens, and having friendly, social cats in the home is a MUST—they help her feel safe and build confidence (with slow, careful introductions). She may also be okay with a calm, small cat-savvy dog.

Patches will need plenty of extra time to adjust and lots of cozy hideaways where she can relax, observe, and grow comfortable in her new world.

Patches’ Comfort Checklist:
Lots of comfy hiding spots and cozy nap zones
Cat trees and scratching posts for climbing and confidence-building
Window perches for peaceful bird-watching
TONS of toys, especially interactive toys and catnip favorites

Favorite Things:
Treats, wet food, catnip, gentle playtime, and relaxing near her kitty friends

If you have a calm home, patient hearts, and friendly feline companions, Patches is ready to blossom into the sweetest little shadow by your side.
