My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Sweet Shelby was found outside and arrived in our care with a severe infection called pyometra, which threatened her life. She resiliently fought through, and has overcome exceptional circumstances with her health! This stunning girl with expressive green eyes didn't know who to trust at first, but with time, she's realised that she can feel safe with people. Throughout the past year in her foster home, Shelby has come such a long way, blossoming into a calmer, more trusting kitty who seeks out affection and company! Shelby loves following her foster mom from room to room, curling up on her lap or by her feet for a snuggle session. Shelby greets her foster mom with kisses in the mornings and keeps her company, adorably snoozing on her laptop throughout the work day.

Shelby has also started to play with her foster family, excitedly chasing crinkle balls that are thrown her way. For a girl who has endured such a difficult journey, Shelby is quite friendly around new people, and will bravely greet guests in the home. She also makes for the purr-fect welcome committee, devotedly running to the front door each day as you arrive home! Shelby can get annoyed from prolonged affection or eye contact, instead preferring short cuddles and brushing sessions on the floor (instead of the chair/couch/desk) so that she can easily walk away. Shelby's other favourite pastimes include lounging on her beloved cat tower, and gobbling down delicious food! This girl has a fabulous appetite, and treats in moderation can be a helpful way for her future adopter to bond with her.

Shelby requires a patient adopter with a big heart in an adult-only home, who is willing to learn her unique body language and take the time to solidify a deep, loving bond. Shelby is so deserving of a devoted home where she can relax and shine as a cherished member of a fur-ever family. If you are ready to open your home and your heart to this lovable girl, please contact Team Cat Rescue today!
