About Snickers

They are ready to love you; are you ready to apply? Snickers is a very gentle and shy cat who appreciates a slow, calm approach. If you move quietly, she'll come to you for a bit of petting and affection. Snickers arrived with another cat and did well living alongside them, showing she can be comfortable with feline company. She is looking for a peaceful home environment where she can relax, ideally with low-energy pet companions and gentle people. To help her settle in, slow introductions to any other friendly pets in the household are recommended. Lets make it official, apply to adopt!
