Dee would like it formally noted that she is not “shy.” She is selective. Mysterious. A woman of discernment. If she hisses at you on day one, that’s simply because she hasn’t decided whether you deserve access to her exclusive social circle yet. Dee has perfected the art of dramatic suspicion. New people? Questionable. Sudden movements? Illegal. Strange noises? Absolutely not. But underneath all that cautious sass is a genuinely affectionate, loving kitten who forms deep bonds once she feels safe. And yes, treats help. Tremendously. At 7 months old, Dee is still packed with kitten energy and loves interactive play. Wand toys, chasing games, and dramatic living-room zoomies are all very important to her personal development. She’ll thrive with someone willing to spend time playing with her daily and helping her build confidence at her own pace. Dee is fine with other cats when properly introduced. She would prefer a home with adults and respectful older children. She hasn’t met any dogs and would require very slow introductions if there are any dogs in the home. Dee would do best in a patient home that understands trust is earned, not immediately granted. A quieter environment is ideal, but if the home is busy or noisy, she’ll need a quiet room where she can decompress and gradually adjust over a few weeks. Think less “party house,” more “introvert with good snacks.” Once Dee settles in, her sweet side starts to shine. Watching her slowly decide you’re trustworthy is honestly kind of an honor! She’s the type of cat who makes you feel chosen—and she knows it. She is spayed, microchipped, dewormed, flea-treated, tested for FIV/FeLV, and up-to-date on all of her vaccinations. Now all she needs is a forever home! If you're interested in adopting, the first step is to fill out the application here: http://bit.ly/3VDJfhm
