Give him a little patience, a few toys, and a safe place to explore, and you'll quickly see his confidence grow. 📩 Message or comment if you're interested! Please include Palmer's name in your message, as we have several rescue animals currently looking for homes. 🏡 Adoption application & contract required to ensure a wonderful forever home and completion of his remaining vetting (2 more FVRCP boosters & Rabies vaccine). 🧡 AF 100

Over time, she escalated from hiding → to hissing/growling → to swatting/chasing them away. 👉 This was **not random aggression** — it was her feeling like she had no safe space and setting boundaries the only way she knew how. 💡 **What she actually needs:** * A home where she can feel **safe and respected** * Ideally an **only-pet home**, OR * A home with **very calm, respectful animals** that will truly leave her alone She is **not a bully or an unpredictable cat** — she just doesn’t tolerate her boundaries being ignored.

My name is Kitty! I am 11 years old and am looking for a new home! I have had a hard time adjusting to my family since another dog and a baby entered the picture, so I am really hoping to find somewhere I can play with toys and cuddle my new owner! I am good around other cats and dogs, as long as they respect my little bubble (like most cats!). I am fine around kids as long as they don't chase me or try to pet me too quickly!
