When our cars litter came into the shelter they were quite terrified of life. But slowly, they began to open up to us. Lightning McQueen seems to be the most shy out of his litter, and is more brave with his siblings. He would most likely do well with another kitty in the household, but could potentially do well in a quite home too. He is very sweet but takes a while to open up, unlike his siblings.
Disclosure: the cars litter were in shelter during the calicivirus outbreak. They are better now. However, they can still shed the virus a few weeks to a few months after contracting it. And 20% of cats can shed it for the rest of their lives. As long as the FVRCP vaccination is up-kept, living with other vaccinated cats will not be a problem. Don`t let this fact dissuade you from potentially taking home your forever friend.
If you would like to meet Lightning McQueen, come in during our open hours Sat-Wed 1-5. He is neutered and up to date on his vaccinations.
