Thyme

Thyme has spent some time in foster with his siblings. His foster mom says he is on the shyer side but allow pets for short time. He will come out and play with wand toys and will lick churru off your fingers. He is looking for someone to help him continue with socialization after adoption to make him feel safe <br/><br/>A "Tiny Spirit Kitten" is a feral or extremely shy kitten that has had no socialization with people in their first few months of life. These kittens will vary in terms of becoming social in their new homes; some may become very sweet and outgoing, while others may only ever trust you and no one else. They will all take patience, dedication and hard work to help them adjust into home life. Confinement to a single small room with a litter box, food, and water is a must. <br/><br/>They do well in a home with other animals and, depending on the kitten, may even do well with children. They will go home with specific instructions that will need to be followed in order for everyone to have a successful transition.<br/><br/>Want to see what the process would look like if you take one of these kitties home?
