Shadow's Story
Meet Shadow, an 8-year-old brown tabby who has a sweet and affectionate side! Shadow enjoys exploring her room and is often happy to come over and greet visitors with gentle head bumps. She loves attention, purrs, and making biscuits, and she's always interested when a tasty treat is involved.<br/><br/>Shadow can become overstimulated easily, especially with petting and physical touch. We're not sure yet if this is something she experiences outside of the shelter or if the shelter environment is contributing to it, so her future family will want to pay close attention to her body language and keep petting sessions short. She'll also benefit from specialized enrichment that gives her other ways to engage and have fun without relying on physical touch.<br/><br/>Shadow may prefer being the only cat in the home, but she has previously done well with children of various ages and could potentially join a family with kids again. We don't have any history of her living with dogs, so slow and thoughtful introductions would be recommended if she joins a home with canine companions.<br/><br/>Shadow has plenty of love to give, and she's looking for someone who will take the time to understand her signals, respect her boundaries, and appreciate all the sweet moments she has to offer.
