DESCRIPTION
Bones is a very shy little guy who's still trying to figure out that the world—and people—can be safe. Right now, his go-to move is a hiss and a “please give me space,” and while he will tolerate a gentle touch here and there, it's not something he's comfortable with just yet. He prefers to observe from a distance and take everything in on his own terms.
He's not quite ready to come out and play, but that doesn't mean he won't get there. Kittens like Bones just need time, patience, and a calm environment where they aren't rushed or overwhelmed. The biggest key to helping him thrive is confidence—and that's why he must be adopted with one of his siblings. Having Rainbow or Spacey Jane by his side will give him the reassurance he needs and help him learn that things aren't so scary after all.
Treats can help bridge the gap—he'll occasionally accept a Churu, though crunchy snacks are more his speed for now. Small, consistent interactions and a predictable routine will go a long way in helping him feel secure.
Bones is looking for a very patient, understanding home—someone who sees the potential in a shy kitten and is willing to put in the time to help him grow. It may take a while, but earning his trust will be incredibly rewarding. With the right person (and a brave sibling to show him the way), Bones has every chance to blossom into a loving companion.
