Francesca - Domestic Short Hair Cat Available for Adoption in Traverse City, Michigan

Hi my name is Francesca! You can tell me apart from Squeaky by looking at the white mark on my chest; mine is much larger. I'm ok with being in the room with my fosterer and playing with wands and laser pointers. Unfortunately, I'm not ok with being touched by people yet. My foster mom has been able to touch me, but I give her offended looks and move away. I will sniff fingers but will then simply move on.

I do like my pal Squeaky though, and we play together well. I am what you'd call a "project kitty" because I had a rough start in life & simply wasn't socialized the way I should have. I'm not sure if I will trust people enough to let them pet me, but I hope so. I'm hoping there's a family out there who are willing to give Squeaky and I a chance.
