Hi, my name is Carla! I'm a PURPLE pawprint, which means I will fit well into a home that meets some specific criteria. Here is what would work best for me in my new home: -Personality: Cautious/sensitive, energetic, affectionate, still learning to trust! -Can Live with Cats: Yes, with a slow and structured introduction process. -Can Live with Dogs: Unknown history - may be okay with a calm cat-friendly dog pending a proper introduction -Can Live with Kids: Unknown history with kids, but easily overwhelmed. Kids ages 12+. -Needs Indoor Only Home: Not required, but recommended! -History of Litter Box Issues: No -Energy Level: Medium/high -Bite History: No -Needs Medical Procedure Before Going Home: Yes, a spay Additional Information: Carla is a sensitive kitty who came to the shelter as a stray, so her history is unknown. She is an affectionate girl when she's comfortable, but it takes her a little while to warm up. Carla would do best in a quiet home where she can adjust at her own pace. She will likely be a completely different cat once she's settled in, but in the meantime her adopters will need to be patient with her. Carla is a young cat (only about 2 years old) who still has lots of energy. She will need plenty of exercise and mental stimulation (i.e., interactive toys, scratching posts, playtime with her person) to keep her occupied in her new home. If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application on our website (www.whatcomhumane.org/adopt) or in person at our facility. We recommend calling into the shelter after your application has been submitted so our front desk can give you next steps on our adoption process.
