Turtle (Cheesecake)'s Story

Look but don't touch. This is Turtle (Cheesecake), who isn't quite as sweet as her face and name may imply. Turtle was acquired from a previous elderly owner/semi-hoarding situation which makes her aloof and wary of humans. She will trot after you from room to room but likes to keep her distance. She is also unfortunately a massive coward who will run and hide if you look at her too long. <br/><br/>Turtle has some interest in humans and she often rubs her scent against objects that were just used. In very rare instances she will sleep at your feet (or on your butt) but if you so much as breathe, away she goes again. Turtle would do best with someone that respects her boundaries and waits for her to come out of her shell. She would prefer an adult only home or a home with older children who ignore her. Otherwise she's a very energetic girl who loves to play with scratchers and felt toys... by herself. She also loves high places and window watching all the intruders outside her home. Some of her other favorite things include: soft armchairs, tent beds, Churus, giving you the stink eye, Churus, when you finally leave HER house, napping in the sun, rolling in catnip, Churus, and scowling at you. <br/><br/>Turtle has spent some time in foster care soaking up the (lack of?) attention and has done well being a solo cat, but she also does well with other respectful kitties, with slow and proper introductions. She is estimated to be about three years old and would be a good project cat for a kind cat-lover with lots of patience. She has been spayed, dewormed, flea treated, microchipped, vaccinated, and has tested FIV/FeLV-. If you want a cute but mischievous cat, perhaps Turtle (Cheesecake) could be your girl?

Trash Cat Rescue's Adoption Policy
Typically the potential adopter reaches out either with or without a specific cat in mind. We will usually ask questions about the type of cat the adopter is interested in (any preferences as far as gender, color, personality, etc.), as well as the sort of home the cat would be going to (any kids, other pets, etc.). If we have a cat or kitten who would be a good fit, the adopter can fill out our application for that animal. If not, the person can still fill out the app, and we will keep them if mind if we end up with a cat who we think would be a good fit. Once the app is reviewed/approved (including checking vet and landlord references), we would chat any further with the adopter if needed, and then schedule a meet and greet with them with the cat or kitten. If the animal and the adopter hit it off, the adopter would then fill out our adoption agreement, pay the adoption fee, and take the cat or kitten home!
