Matilda is brand new here and still settling into her surroundings. With so much change happening all at once, she may come across as a bit shy when you first meet her, and who can blame her? New environments can be overwhelming. We're confident that once Matilda has the chance to settle into a stable home, her true personality will begin to shine. Underneath that initial shyness is a soft-hearted girl. Matilda has lived with other cats before and may do well with a feline friend. She doesn't have known experience with children, so we would recommend a home with cat-savvy kids who understand that some cats need their quiet time and space to adjust. And just wait until you see her adorable pink nose, it's impossible not to fall in love!
