My story

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

Brief Bio
Stubby is 5-month old male kitten that got his name from his short tail. He is looking for a forever home with a patient, loving adopter. He`s been in foster for 4-5 weeks to work on his people skills. You`ll notice he has an ear tip, as we weren`t sure if he`d warm up to new people. He`s come a long way in a very short time and is quite affectionate! He`s eating Hills Science Diet dry food and gets wet food as an occassional treat. He`s a litter box champ!

Summary of Personality
Stubby is an absolute purr monster once you gain his trust. He is initially shy and unsure around new people, surroundings, and sounds.He`s quite playful and likes playing with things he can bat around and chase. He`s still deciding if he likes wand toys or not. You can pick Stubby up and he`ll hold onto your shoulder. You can feel him start to relax once you pet him. Once Stubby gets comfortable around you and his surroundings, his true loving and adventurous side will come out. He adores being pet and getting ear scratches. He would love to get adopted with his brother, Patches.

Home Life (experience with kids & other pets, etc)
Stubby has only been around his brother and another kitten that came in with him. He did well with the teenager in the house, once he got used to him and learned to trust him. With proper slow, supervised introductions, I think Stubby would warm up to other animals and definitely people. A calm, quieter home would be the best setting for Stubby initially until he adjusts, and recommend only older children.
