Tabitha

I would appreciate slow introductions to new people and places to help me feel safe.<br/>Tabitha tolerates attention and petting but appears to be moderately fearful or stressed in the shelter. She will likely need time to warm up to her new home. We recommend that she go to a home with some cat experience preferred or at least be well counseled in fearful cat behavior. Due to the behavior shown, she may not be a great fit for young children. Any home with older children prepared to adopt this cat should conduct a thorough interaction and endeavor to monitor this cat around their children to prevent these behaviors from being reinforced.<br/><br/>My foster writes: Tabitha is a shy but sassy girl. She takes a while to open up to you but when she does her sassy side comes out. She likes to give love bites while you pet her. Tabitha loves other animals and is glued to my cavalier king charles spaniel. She is still unsure about humans so she keeps to herself most of the day. She spends her time hanging out in the cat tree I have in my apartment and seeking affection from the other animals in the house. She never has any accidents outside the litter box and doesn't scratch any furniture. She loves using her scratching posts and playing with her laser toy.<br/>My foster writes: Tabitha is a quiet shy girl looking for a patient and understanding adopter. She is good with cats and both small and big dogs. She will do well in an adult only home or one with older children.<br/><br/>My foster writes: Meet our quiet observer! She takes her time getting comfortable and is still working on building trust. While she's shy and keeps her distance, she does enjoy playing with her toys at night. She's a low-maintenance, peaceful cat, perfect for someone who values a calm and quiet companion. Ready to welcome this gentle soul into your home?<br/><br/>A volunteer writes: Lady Tabitha came to us with her sixteen housemates as their owner was taken into care. She is a shy semi senior whose life was turned up side down in a flash. We will never know what place she held in her tribe and in her former owner 's heart. Tabitha is always found at the back of her kennel, likely limiting her movements to visiting her litter box and feeding herself. She might at times move around to stretch her legs when nobody watches. She is a bit wary when someone opens her door but she does not run away or get up to meet her visitor. She waits with some apprehension for the hand that is eager(although gentle) to touch her and make her feel better. She eventually leans at a thirty degree angle into pets and at times, a faint purr can be felt under the fingers. Tabitha is a pretty tabby and white kitty who might very well open up in an experienced home, with the love of a new owner who understands timid felines and in particular when they have been uprooted. Tabitha is waiting for that very special person, hoping to find and give love. Primary Color: Tabby Secondary Color: White Weight: 7.9lbs Age: 9yrs 6mths 1wks Animal has been Spayed
