Nicknames:
Pearlie-cue, Cuddle-pearl, pearly girl, sugar plum
Coloration:
Black
Arrival Story:
Pearl was caught just shy of 9 weeks old about a week and a half after her litter mates including sister Emmy had been caught and were being cared for by their rescuer in hopes they would all be adoptable. Unfortunately 9 weeks is the late end of the ideal kitten socialization window and their rescuer didn't have a lot of free time for taming, so Pearl and Emmy came to us for intensive fostering just in the nick of time and now we are trying to help them find their forever homes!
Bio:
Not starting her socialization until 9 weeks and having the trauma of being left outside alone for over a week should have made taming Pearl really difficult, but thankfully she just loves being petted and warmed right up to us. You might guess her feral roots by her shyness around strangers or her being more easily startled than most cats, but once she has warmed up to you she's a champion lap cat who purrs constantly, loves belly rubs, and gives cute little licks on your hand. After just a few weeks she already adores her foster parents, when she finds that perfect forever home she'll make her real parents feel like the most special people on Earth!
Leave a treat for Pearl
Quick Bio:
Birthday:
October 27th 2011
Likes:
Laps, the best place to be petted and roll around
Pet-Peeves:
Being held up aginst the chest or over the shoulder- she'll purr but she'll squirm until she winds up back in the lap where she feels she belongs, also sharing her food dish although she's usually not quite as feisty as Emmy
Favorite Toy:
Other cats' tails, dangly toys, and little soft balls or pipe cleaner sculptures she can easilly bat around
Favorite Nap Spot:
Next to or being hugged by someone she loves who is also laying down or on a rocking chair- in the hammock if she's in the cage
Favorite Food:
Science Diet Kitten or most canned foods get her very excited!
Skills:
We would say Pearl has the special skill of overcoming her early kittenhood and quickly becoming a very loving housecat against the odds
Dwells:
indoors
Lives Remaining:
8 of 9
