Frances

If you love quiet company, gentle souls, and the joy of earning trust from a shy heart, then Frances (aka Franny) may be the cat you’ve been dreaming of.<br/><br/>Frances is a deep introvert at heart—she prefers the world when it’s quiet, predictable, and calm. Her specialty? Finding brand-new hiding spots daily. Her foster jokingly calls it “the Franny scavenger hunt,” and while it keeps things interesting, it’s also a reminder of her thoughtful, observant nature.<br/><br/>Though she may dart away when approached, Frances has never hissed, scratched, or swatted at her foster. She accepts gentle pets, and every day brings her a little closer to offering her very first purr. She’s not quite there yet—but she’s trying, and that effort speaks volumes about her sweetness.<br/><br/>She prefers peaceful homes and would thrive with adopters who understand shy cats and celebrate small victories—like a peek from her hiding spot, a slow blink, or choosing a cozy bed in the open. She may coexist with respectful cats and eventually warm up with time, but she’ll need a home that loves her exactly as she is: quiet, thoughtful, and still learning how safe the world can be.<br/><br/>Frances doesn’t need much attention and isn’t demanding. What she truly needs is patience, predictability, and the reassurance that she can bloom at her own pace. Underneath all that caution is a tender little heart just waiting for the right person to feel safe with.<br/><br/>For someone out there, Frances won’t just be “a shy cat”—she’ll be a meaningful, rewarding journey.
