Smudge's Story

Smudge was found hiding under a shed with her siblings when they were only 8 weeks old.<br/>It took a couple of months to socialize her and show her she was safe. She has come such a long way from the scared little kitten she was. <br/>She does, however, need a little bit of time to acclimate to her new environment. She does well when introduced one small space at a time. <br/><br/>She is such a sweet kitty and a purr machine. The moment you pet her she starts purring, and back scratches are her favorite!<br/><br/>She needs a home where there is another kitty to play with, preferably a younger cat with the same energy as her. <br/><br/>She does not do well with children, she tends to hide. <br/><br/>She tolerates dogs who are calm and respect her space. <br/><br/>We really hope someone will take a chance on her! she is so sweet and gentle.
