SOYSAUCE

My story

Hi, my name is SoySauce, and I am available for adoption.Since I was very scared at the shelter, my foster daddy has been working with me to see if I can be socialized. He noticed right away that I was used to being in a home, and comfortable with it - just not with people. Since he let me make the decisions, I became more open about moving around the room while he was there, but it was 12 weeks before I allowed a touch - a real project kitty! But then I was all in for lots of petting - as long as I approached him! Two more weeks, and I`m sitting on his lap for hours. But I`m still very skittish, and I run if he moves differently than I`m used to, or approaches me, or if I hear different indoor sounds, like voices or a radio. I`ve been very tentative about exploring the rest of the home, but I expect to finish it up eventually. (Foster Daddy believes it`s important to note that in all these weeks I`ve never made an aggressive act towards him.)It looks like I`ll make a nice house cat, but only If I`m given lots of time to get used to you and your home. Being outside may be very hard on me, since I`m terrified of new and/or changing circumstances. I can get used to a new place if I have a closed room (with my food, water, litter box and places to sleep and hide) and I can get used to a new person in the room given enough time. Kids may likely terrify me, and other pets may be difficult. One or two people in a quiet home may work best for me. But I like to play, and I`m young, so I may be very energetic around people I`ve learned to trust. I might even like a companion cat to play with, but I might be terrified instead.My foster daddy believes that I will always be skittish, and expects that I will likely always run and hide at the first sign of a visitor, or sounds I don`t know, like maybe voices or a radio or TV or telephone.If you would like to take on a project cat, and can accept a very skittish result, follow the instructions under `Foster Path` and Foster Daddy will talk to you about me, and if you want to adopt me he can set up a meeting with me.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt SOYSAUCE, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
