Francis's Story

We advise all adopters to expect the 3-3-3 rule as a general guideline for introducing a pet to the home: 3 days to decompress (will show nervousness, hiding, reduced appetite), 3 weeks to settle into a routine (beginning to explore and showing personality), and 3 months to build trust and feel fully comfortable in their new home. This period may be longer for shy or extremely scared animals.<br/><br/>Despite being only 7 months, Francis knows exactly what she does, and doesn't, want in life. Her main goal is to be 100% your center-of-attention. Want a furry child? Check! Want to have a shadow who follows you 24/7? Check! Francis already knows that she isn't willing to share her person with anyone else, and that does include cats and dogs both. However, Francis has been good with children as long they can respect her.
