BUD

My story

Bud: I am a handsome guy, shy at first, and friendly with my people. It is recommended that my adopters give me a very slow introduction to my new home. To succeed, I should start off in a small space (an unused extra bedroom or bathroom) and only given more space when I am confidently moving around my environment and interacting withmy adopter. I should be left alone initially as I adjust. My space should include plenty of hiding places, ideally with access to a vertical surface such as a cat tree or a cat-proofed shelf, andeasy access to a litter box, food, bed, and water. Once I am confidently moving about my small environment and comfortable interacting with my adopter, I can be introduced to the rest of my new home. I have the potential to be a sweet, gentle companion with a very cat-savvy adopter who is willing to put in the extra effort to help me come out of my shell. I would be ideal for a gentle, quiet adopter looking to help out a cat but one that has low expectations for who that cat is and what it might become. A `let them be who they are` type of person. Spirit cats like me do best having a companion at home! I came to the shelter with another cat named Sweet. While we do not need to go home together, with my shy personality I wouldmost likely do best in a home with another cat. Compatibility:CATS: YES PLEASE! Highly recommended to go to a home with a social cat that can be their role model and show them the ropes.DOGS: Possibly - no historyKIDS Older, quiet, cat-savvy
