About Thistle

Thistle is only about a year old and she's having a hard time settling in. She’s clearly scared in the shelter environment and still hopes someone will give her a chance. Don’t judge her too harshly if she’s anxious or shy at first—most cats like Thistle typically find their footing and start to blossom once they land in a home. Since she’s just past kittenhood, Thistle needs to socialize with other animals for healthy development. Connecticut Cat Connection generally asks that cats under a year are adopted in pairs or join households with another playful animal as a companion. Fostering is also available if you’d like to help her adjust outside the shelter. Thistle is patiently waiting in Windsor, CT for someone who can see past her nerves and help her build confidence.
