Arden And Nuggetshy Duo is a gentle, very shy cat in Anchorage, AK who is looking for a patient and understanding home. He will need time and a calm environment to feel comfortable as he adjusts to new people and surroundings. Arden is not quick to warm up and will likely hide or freeze when faced with unfamiliar faces, but volunteers have seen glimpses of his playful and wonderful personality—especially with his favorite toys like balls, lasers, wands, and feathers. While Arden doesn’t enjoy being petted yet, he is food motivated and responds positively to gentle, slow interactions. He gets along well with other cats, but due to his sensitive nature, a quiet, child-free home is recommended. Arden has no history with dogs. He’s making progress socializing with the help of volunteers and behavior experts and benefits from routines that respect his boundaries. Arden’s adoption process requires multiple visits, coordination with the behavior team, and a commitment to making his transition as smooth as possible. He's hoping for someone who values patience as much as he does. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
