Description:
Wertherâs came To our shelter as a very tiny stray just a few weeks old along with his brother Butterscotch they were very scared and fearful. His big eyes and ear tuffs melted our hearts. The staff at Bchs Took the two under our wings they went into foster home and have grown into loving playful kittens. Wertherâs has gained lots of confidence, he can still be a little shy but with the right home, patience and lots of love and attention will continue to bloom into a beautiful fur baby. His favorite activities are eating and playing and his brother, he would love to go home with his brother but that is not required, he probably would do well with other cats with proper and slow introduction. In foster care he accomplished eating wet food straight from hand and even a bowl from foster momâs lap this is a great way to bond with a new kitten it will give him the opportunity to bond and trust. He is perfectly capable of eating on his own uses the litter box well and has had no issues in that department. He plays well independently, but loves to wrestle with his brother. As with all new pets it is highly recommended that Wertherâs is contained to one area of the home particularly a smaller bedroom or area that can be closed so that he doesnât scamper off and get lost or hide and not be found, this also gives him time to adjust to his new environment and gives that adopter an opportunity to interact in a smaller space until there is enough confidence to let him experience the whole home. Keep in mind this room should be baby proof as kittens can get into things unknowingly that can harm them. A room with a view would be great but beware of blinds with strings. He has interacted with a five-year-old girl and did well handled gently, he would do best in a calm household so that he can continue to gain confidence and bravery. Changing environments can be very stressful for young animals especially those that get a rough start Wertherâs has never been aggressive but could hiss if he gets startled or feels afraid. He has done very well to overcome this in foster care, However adopter must be prepared for this behavior due to change in environment. Heâs a little guy with a big heart and would make a great companion to someone who can devote the time and attention to himAdoption Fee $110.00
