Birch

Hello... is it safe out there yet? My name is Birch.<br/><br/>If you’re looking around my kennel and don't see me right away, look closely for a soft lump wrapped tight in a blanket—that’s me, master of the "purrito." Right now, the dark and cozy corners feel like the safest places to be while I try to understand all these new sights, sounds, and smells.<br/><br/>I came to the shelter recently with my friends Meadow and Briar after being rescued near a church. Because everything changed so fast, my paws are feeling a little hesitant and my heart beats a bit fast when things get loud. Hiding under my blanket gives me the courage I need to process this big transition.<br/><br/>The kind people here tell me every day that good things are coming, and deep down, I believe them. Underneath my brown tabby and white coat and this layer of shyness is a gentle boy who just needs time, patience, and a quiet space to realize he’s completely safe.<br/><br/>I’m looking for a special person or family who understands that trust isn't built overnight, but is so worth waiting for. If you have a soft spot for timid souls and a calm home with cozy hiding spots, I would love the chance to slowly unfurl and show you the loving companion I know I can be.<br/><br/>Will you be the one to help me come out of my shell?<br/><br/>**Birch will be neutered, vaccinated against Rabies, and FIV/Feline Leukemia combo tested prior to going to his new home. He has been given a feline distemper vaccination along with a dewormer.**<br/><br/>Birch will have an adoption fee of $105 with an approved adoption application. This fee will cover the cost of his neuter, vaccination given in shelter, dewormer, and FIV combo test. This fee does NOT cover the cost of his Rabies vaccination, this additional fee of $45.09 is paid by the adopter, directly to the vet clinic at time of pick up. <br/><br/>The Liberty Animal Shelter is open Monday through Friday 10a.m. to 6p.m. and 10 a.m. to 3pm. on the weekends. <br/>*hours are subject to change*<br/><br/>We cannot guarantee the availability of any particular animal.

Will you be the one to help me come out of my shell?
