Shrimp - Domestic Medium Hair Cat for Adoption in York, Pennsylvania

Shrimp is a unique cat with a personality unlike any other. This handsome devil is a real chatterbox, whether he's crying for attention and purring or hissing (in the early days). Though he talks a lot of scary talk, Shrimp does like to get head butts and rub up on staff. With his mixed behavior, Shrimp would be best for a cat-savvy adopter who can roll with the punches and help take this ex-stray from street cat to loving companion-though you may never take all the spice out of him. When it comes to food, all bets are off and Shrimp is quite the unmannered gentleman. He's grabby and demanding. Shrimp would likely need to be fed separately from other household animals and your countertops be kept snack-free. Shrimp is a chronic door-dasher and can be sent to a safe indoor/outdoor home or to a home who would like to try other supervised outdoor access options.

Shrimp has strong negative opinions about other cats in the shelter, but did alright with another cat in a foster to adopt home. If being introduced to small children or other pets, a slow and managed process will be paramount. Shrimp NEEDS a decompression period to adjust to new homes, as he does get grumbly when it comes to moves. And he does not like being picked up, though he will hop onto your lap himself if he pleases. One thing is for sure-living with Shrimp would be an unforgettable experience.
