Lake was rescued as part of a family of kittens found by a busy highway, and adjusting to indoor life took time. Brought in as a young cat, Lake and her brother were especially wary of people—socialization wasn’t easy and she’s still learning what it’s like to feel safe. Lake stands out with her pale grey tabby coat and big, sad eyes. Stress tends to make her eyes water, and she gets anxious in new environments, so she’ll need an adopter who can be patient while she settles in. What she wants most is a calm, secure home where she isn’t rushed and can come out of her shell on her own terms. Lake currently lives peacefully among other cats, and with care, this sweet but sensitive girl can find her footing with someone willing to give her time. Ready to meet your new best friend?
