HOW TO ADOPT: This cat is participating in our Shelter Cat Getaway foster program, which gives cats a vacation from the shelter and lets them enjoy home life while they wait to be adopted. To schedule a time to meet this cat, please contact Mary at mmccarroll@arl-iowa.org — – Adorable, petite cat looking for a calm, loving home and a patient adopter who will give her time to settle in – Very sweet and affectionate, yet not a velcro cat; loves chin and ear scratches and has a tendency to drool with happiness when you pet her – LOVES to play with cat toys, especially plastic jingle balls and her Cat Dancer; also loves to be up high on cat perches and would enjoy a tall cat tree in her new home – Enjoys looking out windows and snuggling into in her hidey box for a good nap – Kids, particularly young, noisy or busy ones, can be too much for her right now; her ideal home would be with one or two adults or teens who can spend time with her and form a bond with her; once she gets to know you, she is a devoted friend! – Prefers a deep litter box with clumping litter This cat has shown signs of overstimulation while in the shelter. Lots of handling, playing with hands, and excessive petting can cause them to overstimulate, which can result in scratching and/or biting. This cat is looking for experienced cat owners who will watch this cat’s body language while interacting to note signs of overstimulation (tail waving, fur rippling, dilated pupils, ears turned back and quick body movements) and be willing to respect their boundaries. This cat will also benefit from interactive toys such as wands and ball spinners while playing. We are happy to speak with you more when you visit and can provide post-adoption resources. If you can give this cat mental stimulation, patience and space when they need it, please consider adopting! They would love to be your sidekick and buddy for life! All adoptable cats and kittens are spayed/neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccinations (rabies and FVRCP as appropriate for their age) |
