Cricket

Meet Cricket: Shy Guy with a Soft Side <br/><br/>Cricket is a very special boy who's still figuring out this whole "being a pampered house cat" thing. Born into a feral colony, he didn't grow up binge-watching humans from the couch, so indoor life felt pretty suspicious at first (honestly, can you blame him?)<br/><br/>He's a shy guy and will need a patient, understanding home that lets him move at his own pace. Think of him as the introvert at the party, he's not going to be the first one to say hello, but give him a little time and he'll quickly become your favorite guest.<br/><br/>And here's the good part: once Cricket trusts you, he's all about the perks. Treats? Yes, please. Head scratches? Surprisingly amazing. He's just not ready to admit that immediately.<br/><br/>Cricket gets along well with the dogs and cats in his foster home, so he'd do great with a calm, confident furry friend to show him the ropes (and reassure him that the vacuum cleaner is not, in fact, a predator).<br/><br/>If you're the kind of person who understands that the best relationships take a little time, and that earning a shy cat's trust is basically a lifetime achievement award, Cricket is your guy.<br/><br/>To apply, visit www.shirleysanimals.org
