Nachos Bell Grande - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Candler, North Carolina

Meet Nachos Bell Grande! This sweet girl was rescued from behind a Taco Bell and is still learning to feel safe around humans. She can be nervous around people and may hiss (likely but totally benign) or run away at first, but with patience she’s beginning to let her guard down and show curiosity and trust in her own time. She loves to be pet but forgets until you touch her or hold her securely while you love on her and make her nervous exterior melt. Nachos absolutely loves to play, especially with string toys, and she enjoys cuddles when wrapped up in her favorite blue blanket. The sweetest moments with her are the little ones, when she chooses to stay nearby, leans into a blanket cuddle, or forgets to be scared while chasing a toy. She’s looking for a calm, quiet, understanding home that will give her the time and love she needs to continue building confidence at her own pace. Watching fearful kittens learn to trust is incredibly rewarding, and Nachos is already taking small, brave steps in the right direction. She may not be the kind of kitten who runs up to greet you right away, but the love you earn from a shy kitten like Nachos is something truly special. With a little patience (and maybe a few toys), Nachos Bell Grande is sure to keep coming out of her shell. She would do well in a home with a more confident kitten or cat to show her that peope are really awesome!Complete the online adoption application to be the first to schedule a meet and greet with Nachos Bell Grande or visit her during our weekly adoption event at PetSmart, Bleachery Blvd, 12-4pm on Saturday.
