Story
Hello folks and a happy meow to you! My name is Fancy and I am a less than 1 year old female, domestic short hair cat. I was rescued by some nice people and brought to Golden Paws to find my forever home. I have been shy, timid and scared since my arrival at the shelter, although everyone here is very kind to me. I went through some rough times before that, and although I love being with other cats, I am still somewhat leary of Hoomans. For those of you who are not familiar with the domestic short hair, we are a mixture of many breeds. We are very popular worldwide and are generally adaptable, intelligent and relatively low maintenance. We come in many colors and pattern combinations. I happen to be a Calico, or Dilute Calico. We are generally friendly and very good with families, especially children. We also like other animals but, like all cats, we enjoy our independence too. I need a home with Hoomans who have the time and desire to show me the love, patience and understanding that will help me get over any fears from my past. Isn't that what everyone needs though? Anyone going to a new place, surrounded by new people, will need some time to adjust. I have a long life ahead of me and with Hoomans who will give me extra TLC and patience, I will be the best house cat and the best buddy ever. I have been spayed, I've had all my shots, and I'm ready to begin my new adventure. If you're the Hooman I've been looking for, the one who will lead the way on that adventure, and the one that will be my bestie forever, fill out an application and come on down for a visit with me. This is your chance to make a real difference in the life of a little fur person who could use that special person and home to complete her life .And in return, I'll make your life better too. Guaranteed! I look forward to seeing you soon. Love, Fancy “When a man loves cats, I am his friend and comrade without further introduction”. Mark Twain
