Background

Meet Shade, a beautiful 10 year old feline who is looking for a very special home. Shade is a bit of a mystery - she is shy and reserved kitty who takes her time to warm up to new people. While she may initially prefer to keep her distance, she has shown, that with patience and a bit of coaxing, she can be tempted to come out of her shell with the help of some tasty treats.

Shade tends to be quite cautious around humans and often chooses to hide when unfamiliar faces are around. She’s more comfortable observing from a safe spot and needs a very gently approach. Her foster parents are working diligently to help her feel more at ease, though she’s not quite ready for lots of hands-on attention yet. Building trust with her will take time but the bond will be worth it!

One of Shade’s unique needs is assistance with grooming. Due to her size she requires regular grooming to help keep her clean and comfortable. Her fur also needs to be trimmed to ensure she stays tidy and healthy.

Despite her shyness, Shade has a playful side and enjoys engaging with toys on her own. She’s also intrigued by the other cats in her foster home, showing that she has the potential to be a wonderful companion to her fellow felines. She enjoys batting a toy mice or chasing a ball and can entertain herself quite well.

Shade’s ideal home would be a quiet and patient environment where she can continue to build trust at her own pace. It is important to note that she would do best in a home without dogs and where there are no loud children as she fines these environment to be too overwhelming. Her new family would need to be prepared for a gentle, long -term commitment to helping her adjust. If you have a heart full of compassion and a willingness to understand Shade’s unique needs, she might just be the perfect addition to your home.
