LaVergne

LaVergne (DOB April 2023) came to Safe Haven from a New Hampshire<br/>shelter in April 2024. Shortly after arriving, she gave birth to four kittens -<br/>Eudora, Arista, Felicity, and Coco - in May 2024. She was a wonderful,<br/>devoted mother, and all of her babies have since been adopted. Now, sweet<br/>LaVergne is patiently waiting for a forever home of her own.<br/><br/>LaVergne is a beautiful tortoiseshell kitty with big, bright, expressive eyes.<br/>When she first arrived at Safe Haven, she was timid, solitary, and very<br/>cautious, preferring to stay tucked away in her safe space. Thanks to the<br/>patience and dedication of our volunteers, who have spent many hours<br/>gently socializing with her, LaVergne has made steady and heartwarming<br/>progress.<br/><br/>She has come out of her shell and now enjoys hanging out with her<br/>roommates. LaVergne loves playtime and is very lively and animated with<br/>her toys - she enjoys batting, pouncing, and even chasing her own tail. She<br/>especially loves lounging on the highest perch in the room. During quiet<br/>moments, she makes lovely eye contact and offers gentle blinks, a clear sign<br/>of growing trust.<br/><br/>While LaVergne is still a bit shy and can be cautious with quick movements<br/>or petting, she clearly wants to be friendly. Treats are the way to her heart -<br/>if you place them down and give her space, she will happily come forward to<br/>enjoy them. Some volunteers have even earned the honor of having her lick<br/>squeeze treats right off their fingers.<br/><br/>LaVergne has never shown aggression; if she’s unsure, she simply backs<br/>away. With time, patience, and a calm, quiet environment, she will continue<br/>to blossom and become a wonderful companion. For someone who<br/>understands that trust is built gently, LaVergne will be a truly special and<br/>rewarding addition to their home.<br/><br/>LaVergne would do best in a quiet home with adults and older children, and<br/>with minimal distraction where she can feel safe and respected. She would<br/>enjoy the companionship of another quiet cat in the household, or a kitty<br/>she is friends with at the shelter.<br/><br/>LaVergne requires someone who is willing to invest a little time in the<br/>socialization process and provide plenty of active play. Like all cats coming<br/>from a shelter there is an adjustment period, and LaVergne needs just a bit<br/>of patience and understanding, allowing her to become comfortable in her<br/>forever home. We feel confident she will shine as a gentle and observant<br/>companion. If you’re looking for a fun-loving cat to keep you company,<br/>LaVergne is ready to move in and make your home her favorite playground!<br/><br/>To meet LaVergne and visit the shelter located at the Thrift Shop/Cattail<br/>Farm, 1784 Post Road, Wells, ME (Route 1), please click on the link below to<br/>fill out an adoption application.
