Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Charlotte, North Carolina

Please contact my foster at: jesskisskrum@yahoo.com Meet Raksha (aka Rocky)! Age: 6 Months Personality: Gentle observer, shy bloomer, feline socialite Best Feature: Her sleek, velvety gray coat and soulful eyes If you are looking for the rewarding experience of earning a cat’s trust, Raksha (affectionately called Rocky) is ready to find her person. This stunning girl came from a very busy background with many feline friends but very little experience with the human world. Because of this, she views life with a bit of caution, but her heart is beginning to open in a big way. Rocky has spent the last month in her foster home learning that humans are actually the keepers of the snacks and the givers of the pets. While she was very tucked away at first, she has officially begun to blossom. She has graduated from hiding to curiously following her foster mom around for pets, playing and her favorite treats. Rocky is looking for a patient, quiet forever home. She isn't the type of kitten to jump into your arms on day one, but she is the type to reward your patience with a soft purr once she feels safe. Rocky loves other cats. She would thrive in a home with another friendly, social cat who can continue to show her the ropes. A low-activity household without a lot of loud noises or scary fast movements will help her feel like the brave girl she is becoming. Watching Rocky discover new things—like the joy of a feather wand or the comfort of a soft bed—is a truly special experience. Rocky is currently a little but of a work in progress, but she is worth every bit of the effort. Once you win her over, you’ll have a little bestie for life!
