Starry

My story

My foster writes: Starry is a quirky queen! She is a slightly more independent cat, but also loves to be pet. She is always rubbing herself against people and furniture, looking for a head rub. She also loves having her back rubbed and will arch her back and lift herself up to be pet. At the same time, she likes to be touched on her own terms and sometimes seems surprised or startled to find herself in a cuddling moment that she initiated. At this point, she might scurry away or give a little nip, never causing pain, but clearly establishing her boundaries. This silly girl also thinks toes look delicious! Starry still has a lot of kitten energy and loves playing with cat toys, especially when she gets the zoomies! Starry is beautiful and sweet - a treasure. She adores other cats and would be a great addition to any household.What my friends at ACC say about me:I have lived with cats in my previous home.I would appreciate slow introductions to new people and places to help me feel safe.I prefer to call the shots and enjoy coming to you when I'm ready for pets.Starry is an adult cat that may not have had many interactions with humans from an early age. She is apprehensive of people and while showing no aggressive behaviors, she appears wary of human contact. It is difficult to predict if she will respond to socialization but we recommend offering high value treats and food to help build a positive association to humans. Please be mindful that older cats will require more time and skill in order for them to be comfortable around people. Due to the behaviors seen in the care center, we feel that this cat will do best in an experienced, adult only home. Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: White Weight: 5 Age: 1yrs 3mths 2wks
