Black Pepper's Story

Black Pepper is one of our "spicy" semi-feral kittens who need just a bit more experience with people in order to trust and accept affection. Pepper is maybe the most playful and rambunctious of her group, but also can be one of the most shy. When not chasing toys she prefers to mostly find a cozy place to hide from prying eyes, though was also one of the first to purr and recieve pets comfortably. She may flinch or run from people she is not familiar with, but learning that strangers touching her is not always going to be dangerous is an invaluable thing to learn at her stage. Please come meet Black Pepper today and help us teach her that humans are here to help, not harm.
