Dodger

My story

Hi, I’m Dodger! My siblings and I came from a local farm. Our mom was trapped and spayed, and now she’s back enjoying life on the farm, but I’d prefer an INDOOR life - I just need to find the PURRfect family! I am still timid, and not quite sure of humans. But….my helpers have noticed that I will quietly seem to show up wherever they are, and watch them intently, so I am definitely interested! If they notice I’ve gotten close to them, I get a little conflicted, and gently bat at their hand (without claws!) if they reach out for me. My people aren’t quite sure if this is an attempt to connect or if I am saying “back up please,” but they suspect that I really want to connect behind my fear. I enjoy ball track toys quite a lot, and I’m pretty interested in wand toys. I like food quite a bit and I will come running when I hear cans opening! I don't meow often, but when I'm hungry, I will use my sweet little voice to alert you that it's mealtime. Toys and food are the way to crack my code! I have a sweet side, and in the right home with very patient experienced adopters, who are willing to start me out in a small space where I can’t just hide from them, I think I will be able to overcome my fear and form a true, lasting connection. BUT, I need adopters who understand that while I can be a good companion and hang out with you, I am not likely to ever become a lap cat. If you’re looking for a Velcro kitty, I’m not your guy, but if you’re looking for a cat that’s shy but chill, enjoys other kitties, and is content just to hang out nearby, let’s meet!
