Meet Bastet a regal tortie with a name fit for royalty, inspired by the ancient Egyptian cat goddess herself. Bastet carries herself with a quiet, graceful presence. She is a mellow, relaxed girl who enjoys peace and stability in her environment. While she is a bit shy at first, she has a gentle, sweet nature that begins to shine through once she feels safe and comfortable. She is not a pushy cat, Bastet takes her time getting to know new people, but the bond she builds is meaningful and deeply rewarding. With patience and a calm approach, she will slowly learn to trust and lean into affection in her own time. Bastet has lived with other cats before and would do best in a home with calm, similarly relaxed feline companions who respect her gentle energy and space. She has no known experience with children, and due to her shy and sometimes fearful nature, she would do best in a cat savvy home with respectful kids if any. She will need time to adjust, decompress, and feel secure but for the right person, watching her come out of her shell will be a beautiful and heartwarming journey. Bastet is a quiet queen in waiting, ready for a home that understands the value of patience, softness, and trust!
