Dusty's Story

Dusty is very into getting attention, but she is shy! Some gentle pets while she gets a squeeze treat will likely win her over quickly. <br/><br/>She would do best in a home with another cat, whose presence would give her more confidence in humans, by showing her that they trust you. Dusty is a visual learner.<br/><br/>The only unusual thing about this little girl is how she greets her long-term foster - she quietly hisses! It isn't aggression. She rarely meows and this tiny hiss has become her standard greeting. In time, she may outgrow that, but for now, it's just her own unique version of "HI!"<br/><br/>Dusty came to us with her family and her brother (Cow) and sister (Cloud) are also available for adoption. None of them are bonded, but they do enjoy each other's company! <br/><br/>If you're seeing this on a site other that ours, this link will take you to her profile, where you can apply to adopt - https://new.shelterluv.com/embed/animal/202717588<br/><br/>To apply to foster - https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/foster/CDLY/Cat
