Story
I`M 10 YEARS YOUNG! I`M ACTIVE, FRIENDLY, AND LOVE TO PLAY! I DO LIKE HAVING A SOMEWHAT QUIET LIFE WITH LOTS OF COMFY PLACES TO RELAX AND HANG OUT WITH PEOPLE THAT HANDLE ME GENTLY. I`M PERFECTLY FINE WITH OTHER NICE CATS AROUND THAT GIVE ME SPACE.You can find me high, low, and in between, but if people are around, you probably won`t have to come looking for me! I`m most likely to be right out with you and following you to hang out wherever you stop. I try not to get in your way, but I AM available for petting at all times! I`m very good at jumping, so you`ll find me with you on the furniture, next to you at the desk, and enjoying my cat tree while watching outside. I love soft blankets, so finding them around the house will be a treat, especially on the furniture next to you! Speaking of treats, I love them! I`m learning to take them from between your fingers if you hold one out for me, and pretty good at it already! I have a great time playing with the motion activated toys they have, from Amazon. Any toy moving under a sheet is irresistible fun, and the butterfly fluttering on top of one can be too. I`ll chase around little toys sometimes. I`m also good at playing with you and wand toys. Playing with it around our tunnel adds a little extra excitement, so let`s have fun! I`m not usually still for long periods of time, but I`m not always on the go. I`m a really great snuggle buddy too! I really love attention, and paying attention to you too. If you`re busy, no worries, I`m there to give you a quick snuggle and maybe a face rub when we`re well acquainted. You`ll love watching me jump and be silly at play, but you`ll really love how much I love you with my sweet personality and big heart!

PLAYFUL, CURIOUS, AND AFFFECTIONATE. GREAT WITH OTHER CATS, GOOD WITH GENTLE KIDS, AND MAY BE OK WITH A CALM DOG. I might be a little cautious at first, but once I know I’m safe with you, I will seek out your attention and insist on playtime. I love playing with cardboard scratchers, string toys, electric butterfly toys, and other kittens. When I can’t decide between wanting pets or wanting playtime, I’ll roll around on my side and back – don’t worry, I’m very gently when I play, so it’s safe to pet my tummy! I love to wrestle with other kittens, so having a buddy would be nice. I also like to climb and explore, so having a cat tunnel or cat tree in my new home would be terrific! Being held is still a little scary for me, so please understand that, for now, I may not be willing to be held for more than a few minutes at a time. Right now, I prefer the toddler hold. I’m still learning that hugs from people can be fun and safe, so please be patient with me.

AFFECTIONATE, PLAYFUL, AND EAGER TO EXPLORE. GREAT WITH OTHER CATS, GOOD WITH KIDS, AND MAY BE OK WITH A CALM DOG. I am a sweet girl who loves affection and playtime, both with people and with other cats. I enjoy all sorts of toys, climbing up cat trees, and pouncing through cat tunnels. String toys are especially fun! And while I love having playmates, I always want to make sure I have your attention, too. I am also a curious explorer – whether the height of a top shelf or the mysterious closet, I want to see it all! I’d really like to have lots of toys that keep my curiosity satisfied and humans that will appreciate my desire for closeness and affection. Being held is still a little scary for me, so please understand that, for now, I may not be willing to be held for more than a few minutes at a time. Right now, I prefer the toddler hold. I’m still learning that hugs from people can be fun and safe, so please be patient with me.

Story
CLEVER, SHY, AND LOVES TO PLAY. GREAT WITH OTHER CATS, GOOD WITH GENTLE KIDS (OLDER KIDS PREFERRED), AND COULD BE OK WITH A CALM DOG. I am a shy girl, but I love to play! A great way to help me come out of my shell is to use string toys to play with me – I love those! I also really like running around in cat tunnels and climbing cat trees as well. I’m super quick and clever when avoiding being held, but if you can get me in a cradle hold with my tail tucked up to my tummy, I’ll often let you hold me for a few minutes that way. Eventually, I’ll become more comfortable with being pet, but right now I prefer being pet on my back first before letting you pet my face. When I’m taking a rest from playing, I like to snuggle up with another kitten, so having a buddy in my new home would be really comforting for me. Another thing that helps me settle in and become more comfortable in my surroundings is watching or listening to “cat tv” on YouTube – the chirping birds often help me relax more. I also really like having a soft/fluffy cat bed to sleep (and sometimes nurse) on while I get used to my new home.

A LITTLE BOB-TAILED CUTIE THAT WILL SMOTHER YOU WITH LOVE! WILL BE MOST COMFORTABLE IN A LOW VOLUME, EASY GOING HOME WITH GENTLE KIDS OVER 4 YRS. SEEING OUR OTHER CATS MAKES HER VERY AFRAID, SO NEEDS TO BE YOUR ONLY CAT. I`m adorable and just a darling to be around. I can`t help but be cute and I love people so very much that I`m always wanting to snuggle! I love making biscuits on squishy blankets too. I like to stay busy exploring and climbing a little. I`ll enjoy having a cat free near the window to watch outside. I`ve been learning to play with toys here. I play with my little toys, but I love the motion activated toy that moves under a sheet, from Amazon. Sometimes I like to chase a fluttering butterfly. Start off gently and we`ll have fun playing with our wand toy together too. I do love having a cardboard scratcher! Even with toys around you`ll see that people are still my favorite!

SHY, SILLY, AND OH-SO-SWEET! GREAT WITH OTHER CATS AND GOOD WITH GENTLE KIDS. It takes me a while to open up and I will be very shy and reserved with you at first. It would bring me a lot of comfort having safe places to hide in my new home, such as a tunnel, a cave-like bed, or a cat tree with a sheltered area. I start to relax when you play with me, especially with string toys – those are lots of fun for me and I can’t resist chasing them! I’ll even climb as high as I can to try to grab the string! I love to climb, so a cat tree would be really great for me. I also seek comfort by snuggling with other kitties, so having a buddy in my new home is preferred. As I get to know you and trust you more, I’ll start showing my silly side and let you pet me, but being held still makes me a bit nervous. Right now, I do pretty well with the toddler hold while being given gentle pets, but only in short amounts of time. I would do well in a home that has a quiet environment, especially while I settle in.
