Description

Blue is a gentle, soft-hearted girl who is still discovering just how wonderful people can be. With her quiet nature and thoughtful personality, she's the kind of cat who takes her time getting comfortable, but watching her confidence grow is incredibly rewarding. Blue loves finding cozy places to curl up for a nap and has a knack for locating the most unexpected hiding spots. Beneath her shy exterior is a sweet, affectionate cat who is learning every day that human companionship can be pretty wonderful.Blue is looking for a calm home with patient adopters who understand that trust takes time. Because large, unfamiliar spaces can feel overwhelming to her, she will do best starting out in a smaller room, such as a bathroom or spare bedroom, where she can safely adjust to her new surroundings and bond with her new people. If given free reign of a large home too soon, Blue is likely to find a hiding spot and stay there for days. In a smaller space, she gains confidence much more quickly and can focus on building relationships with the people who love her. An adults-only household, or one with older, gentle, cat-savvy teens, would be ideal for this sensitive girl.One thing that has become clear in foster care is that Blue truly enjoys the company of other cats. She gets along well with the resident cats in her foster home and likes having feline friends around. A confident, friendly cat companion could be a wonderful influence as she continues to build her confidence. While she hasn't had direct interaction with dogs, she has seen and heard them from a distance, and may be able to adjust to a respectful dog with slow introductions.Once Blue feels safe, her loving personality begins to shine. She enjoys pets, seeks out attention, and absolutely loves being picked up and held like a baby. Her foster mom's favorite thing is carrying her around while Blue relaxes contentedly in her arms. Although she's not especially interested in most toys, she definitely appreciates a little catnip and enjoys spending time with her feline friends. The more comfortable she becomes, the more affectionate she reveals herself to be.Blue may not be the cat who immediately greets visitors at the door, but for someone willing to give her patience, understanding, and the gentle introduction she needs, she will blossom into a devoted and loving companion. Every day she grows a little braver, and her future family will have the joy of watching her continue that journey while gaining a loyal friend for life.WE DO NOT HAVE A PHYSICAL LOCATION AS WE ARE A FOSTER-BASED ORGANIZATION.  PLEASE SUBMIT AN APPLICATION TO BE IMMEDIATELY CONNECTED TO A SCREENER.Apply at online application (catsfff.org/adopt)View all of our adoptable cats here (catsfff.org/cats)Our adoption fees are listed here (catsfff.org/adoption-fees)
