Meet Neive

Neive:

I am very sweet, with the potential to be an easy-going, gentle cat once I warm up to my people. I will need a VERY patient, cat-savvy adopter who can read cat-body language and give me time to blossom into my true personality.

I came from an overcrowded home with lots of other cats. It will be best to start me in a spare bedroom or bathroom at first, with options to climb vertically such as a cat tree, and easy access to food, water, bed and a large litter box. Ideally with enough time to myself, I will begin to relax and move around more freely while my adopter in visiting my room. Once I am consistently moving around comfortably with relaxed body language, I am ready to start exploring other parts of my new home. Expectations should be set that it is unknown how long it will take for me to adapt (possibly weeks or months) and I might never become super social, but more of a roommate. I would be ideal for a gentle, quiet adopter looking to help out a cat, but one that has low expectations for who I am and what I might become.

It is recommended that I have a cat friend in my new home, or be adopted with another cat so we can become more confident together, as I was used to having a friend in my previous environment.

Compatibility:
Dogs: Possibly – no history – mellow and cat-savvy
Cats: YES! Ideally I should be adopted into a home with a confident feline friend that I can bond with and who can help show me the ropes. I am most likely going to be a `cat`s cat versus a `people`s cat`.
Kids: Possibly – no history – older and cat-savvy

The shelter is open Tuesday through Sunday from noon – 4:30 pm, with no appointment needed to meet available cats.
