If you love a project and are drawn to the challenge of earning a cat’s trust, skittles might catch your interest. She’s the sort of young cat who shadows you just out of arm’s reach—always nearby, but rarely within petting distance. Skittles used to hide from everything, but over time she’s begun to show curiosity and playfulness, especially when other cats are involved. She feels her best with feline company, so she must join a home with another friendly cat or bring along a companion. With humans, she’s cautious and keeps her distance, but can sometimes be found snoozing beside you at night or purring happily from the edge of the couch. She finds feet less threatening than hands and, with food or treats as motivation, could eventually warm up further in a patient, low-pressure environment. She tolerates the presence of children, though don’t expect snuggles. Overall, skittles is sweet but requires someone willing to let her take her time. She’s neutered, vaccinated, healthy, about a year old, and ready for a quiet home where she can blossom at her own pace. Fun astrological fact: born on March 31, skittles is an Aries—so stubbornness is in her stars. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
