My story

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

Hi there, I'm Wrangler, and thanks for taking a look at me.

I know I am super adorable, but there are some things you should know about me. I am a very special little kitty that is going to need a special person to help me adjust to a new home. I have made HUGE progress from when I first came to Anderson. I am what people refer to as a semi-feral kitten. Although I don't like labels, I need to be honest with you so you can make a good decision as to whether or not I am the right kitten for you. I have been living in a foster and in that time I have learned to trust my foster mom and now enjoy playing with toys.

My issue is that it takes me a long time to get acclimated to a new environment and when I go into my new home, it may be like starting over. I will need someone that is a very experienced cat person and is willing to give me the space that I need to adjust. An experienced owner is going to be very key to my success to read my behavior and to understand my needs.

I will also need to go to a home with another friendly cat or kitten because they can help me with my confidence and I just light up when I get to be around other kitties. It may be best if I go to an adult-only home so I can be given a more quiet place to settle.

Feral kittens are kittens who have not been well socialized to humans. Their behavior might seem avoidant, scared, or even sometimes aggressive.

But, with enough patience, care, and of course LOVE I may come around and become a loving companion, but will likely enjoy the company of only one or limited persons.

I am not a good choice for someone who wants to immediately bond with their new kitten. With extra work, I may bond with my family, but only with time and patience.

In the end, it will prove well worth the effort and you will be rewarded by giving a kitten a chance to live a suitable life.

If you are interested in setting up a meeting, email info@andersonanimalshelter.org, and the staff will be happy to help.
