DOB: 6/01
Sadie is a young, campus cat from the west side of the Iowa River. Her extended family has grown up outside near the UI College of Nursing.
When Sadie was captured in a humane trap, she was already a young adult, and it was clear that she had never been touched by a human. It was also clear that she was terrified and not looking forward to the experience.
After her initial health checkup and vet care, she went to her foster home and had to learn about stairs, cat beds, hands, and all the other things that most housecats take for granted.
Because her introduction to humans came after kittenhood, Sadie's education will take awhile, but she is gaining confidence slowly and making progress. She has access to the entire house and has favorite cave-like spots under tables.
Check out her nephews, Aidan, Lynx, and Niall, her sister, Nicole, and her mom, Baby.
Sadie likes: blending in; hanging out with her sister, Nicole under the dining room table; mealtime.
She dislikes: loud noises; being 'noticed.'
Sadie is not confident. Most of the time she's not even visable. But she has good feline social skills and gets along fine. Sadie is still not comfortable being touched, but she has potential.
