Story
Considering adopting? The first step is to complete our online Adoption Application at http://forgetmenotshelter.org/application
Please do not call the shelter; do the application first.
Introducing Baby Girl, a 2-year-old kitty who was surrendered to us when her owner could no longer care for her. To put it mildly, Baby Girl is deeply unimpressed with her current accommodations. The shelter life gets a zero-star review from her, and she makes no secret of the fact that she would rather be anywhere else!
Baby Girl is a sensitive, shy soul who finds the shelter bustle way too overwhelming. Touch is strictly on a "don't call us, we'll call you" basis right now, as she prefers hiding in a cozy nook over accepting pets. But under all that grumpiness and stage fright is a sweet cat who just needs to feel safe again.
Her ideal living arrangement is a peaceful, low-key sanctuary. She enjoys the company of other calm cats, but she considers dogs and energetic children to be entirely too chaotic for her liking and will immediately retreat under the nearest couch.
Baby Girl isn't going to be an instant lap cat, but for a patient person with time, soft words, and plenty of love to share, helping this reluctant girl slowly blossom and regain her confidence will be the most rewarding project ever. If you're ready to win over the ultimate hard-to-get kitty, Baby Girl is waiting for you!

All pets arrive spayed/neutered, dewormed, microchipped and vaccinated. Adoption fee for Baby Girl is a suggested minimum of $35 SHY CAT (more gratefully accepted). All pets are placed with a 30-day money-back trial period, to give pet and family enough time to discover any unknown allergies or other conflicts.
Can't come to Republic? Don't let that stop you! We have monthly transports to the Seattle area, delivering adopted pets to their new owners. If you can add a little to your donation to help us cover our volunteer driver's expenses, that would be great!
