Paprika - Domestic Short Hair Cat Available for Adoption in Greensburg, Pennsylvania

Paprika is a handsome boy who came to us with his sister Sage in April 2026 from another foster. The previous foster said he loves to lounge around, lay upside down, and play with Sage. Unfortunately once he came to us he regressed and hides due to all the changes. He is shy but will come to us to be petted or even held. He really is a sweet, loving boy. We know in rescuing that it can take up to 3 months for a cat to decompress to be their true self. Therefore he would need a home not only with another cat or to go with Sage, but one that will be patient and let him come out of his shell and not force things. In the meantime, We will continue to work with him to help his anxieties with humans. He does well with other cats and his previous foster had dogs.
