Description:
Hello! My name is Sheldon or Shelly boy! I'm an adorable, shy kitty who will take a little while to adjust to my new surroundings/people, but once I feel comfortable, I'll show you just how loving I can be. I like toys, especially spring toys. I have fun chasing them around and carrying them in my mouth. I think playing with other kitties is fun too. Playing with a wand toy with you is also great! Wet food is delicious, and I LOVE churru cat treats. I'm a bit spoiled, and freeze-dried treats are definitely a top choice for me along with churrus. I love lounging on tall cat towers, especially ones with a cozy hammock and a little hideaway hut where I can relax and feel safe. Blanket forts are another favorite of mine. I enjoy snuggling under a blanket and feeling all comfy and secure. Once I’m comfortable with my humans, I love receiving pets and cuddling. I need personal space at times, but who doesn't? I get along great with other friendly cats after a proper introduction. I’d do best in a home with another kitty who’s nice to me. I really enjoy the company of younger kittens and would love to have a confident little friend to help me feel more at ease. My foster sister, Cayenne, is also available for adoption. She is a bit shy too but we love each other so much! I love grooming and cuddling with younger cats! I’m working on being better about nail trims, but honestly, it might be easier to sneak them in while I’m sleeping if I allow it! I really enjoy floor cardboard scratchers, which help. While I’m not a fan of being held, I’m okay with being picked up once I feel comfortable with you. Loud noises tend to scare me, so I’ll need a quiet space to settle in. When I arrive at my new home, I am best kept in a calm room without anyone handling me. You can speak to me softly but please maintain some distance since I can become aggressive when I’m scared. Over time, I’ll adjust and start seeking affection. I need someone who will understand that I'm a sweet boy but also respects that I don't like being handled. I’m looking for a calm, peaceful home with minimal activity. No young kids please! Once I settle in, I’ll likely bond closely with one person rather than others. I can be scared of men, so proper introductions will need to be done. I'm a bundle of joy and my foster absolutely adores me. I am neutered, current on vaccines, dewormed, tested negative for FIV/ FeLV, microchipped, and ready to find a home with someone who is patient and going to give me my best life. My adoption fee is $160.
