My story

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

Name, age: Susan, 4 years

Likes: Singing, cuddles, catnip toys, treat tubes, making biscuits

Dislikes: Sudden noises, having her back feet touched, being ignored

What would be the ideal home? Somewhere quiet and calm for this skittish girl

Good with other cats? Unknown

Good with dogs? Unknown

Good with children? Unknown

Personality: Susan is a very sweet girl. She is super laid back and happy to keep herself occupied, but is also always down for a cuddle sesh and loves to lay on a lap when one is available. Bonus: In the kitchen, she makes an excellent sous-chef who keeps a respectable distance while offering constant and loud feedback, no matter what you`re making.

How long will it take to settle into a new environment? I kept Susan to one bedroom for the first few days and then let her explore the house at her own pace. It`s a pretty small house but it took about a week before she reached the living room and another few days before she was brave enough to get up on the couches. It took another week or so before I saw her playing with her toys for the first time. She`s still a little nervous sometimes but I would say overall about 2-3 weeks before she really starts to open up.

Any special needs or traits an adopter should know? She`s a gummy gal! She will rub her mouth on almost anything and enjoys a little chin/jaw massage every so often to relieve the itchiness. Sometimes after a messy meal, she needs her chin wiped with a tissue.
According to my roommates, she is developing some separation anxiety and crying a lot when I leave the house.
