About Juju

Juju’s past was rough—she was rescued with a collar deeply embedded and painful ingrown claws, all signs she hadn’t known a gentle hand for too long. Because of it, Juju is wary: she startles easily and keeps her distance, but not from everyone. Given patience and space, she’s shown she can warm up to people she decides to trust, and when that trust is earned, it matters. Juju absolutely cannot handle being confined; it erodes the progress she’s made, so she needs a quieter home where she can move at her own pace, without pressure. Other cats give Juju a sense of safety she doesn’t find with people yet—she relaxes and finds comfort in feline company. The best environment for her is a calm home with another friendly, mellow cat (and humans who understand trust can’t be hurried). She may always be somewhat skittish, and cuddles probably won’t come right away, but with the right person, she’ll be secure enough to surprise you in her own time. Born January 20, Juju is an Aquarius—maybe that explains her independent streak. Ready to meet a cat who needs freedom, patience, and understanding? Ready to fall in love?
