About Pecan

Pecan is a courtesy post, so adopting her means you’ll be working directly with her current caregiver to give her a forever home. This beautiful girl is ready to impress, but she can be shy when meeting new people. A patient adopter and a calm, quiet environment will help her feel secure. Once Pecan warms up to you, she will be a devoted companion, thriving on pets and cuddles. Be prepared for her to take things at her pace. Loud noises or unfamiliar faces can send her running for a safe hiding spot, but she’s never shown any aggression. In her previous home with children, she kept a respectful distance initially but delighted in cuddling during nap time. Pecan, 7 years old, is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, and litter box trained. She’s in great health, having recently completed health checks with flying colors.
