Arrival Story:
My owner met me at an event for the shelter she volunteers with - Purrfect Pals. There were a bunch of adoptable cats from the shelter and I saw her and she smiled at me and came over. When she opened the cage door and bent down to look at me I surprised her by giving her a headbutt and purring like mad! She read my paperwork and found out the prior owner had given me up a week ago because I was peeing on stuff. But the vet report didn't show that he'd found anything wrong with me. And the owner said she just wanted me put to sleep! Thankfully I'd been a breeder surrender to Purrfect Pals so my microchip from them brought me safely back to the shelter! Laura was so surprised at how relaxed I was at the event. But then when a little kid ran up it scared me and I cowered and hid. And each time a noisy young kid came up I seemed VERY scared. She picked up my papers and read more of my info and found that my former owner had a young boy. Laura quickly figured out that that boy had been very mean to me - and that's why I was peeing on things! The second day of the event Laura decided she'd take me home and see if her kitties liked me - and if I liked them.

Bio:
When we got home she was going to put me in a separate room for a bit but I saw this REALLY big but smiling black dog and I jumped right out the door of my crate and headbutted him! Then I ran to the back of the house and found Luna, the older black kitty. I headbutted her and she jumped back quite startled. Then I got to meet Penny and Percy. They're both really nice and Percy is especially fun to play with! I was a bit wary of Laura when I first got to her home. I couldn't help it - all I'd known was abuse. I would run if she tried to pick me up and loud noises really scared me. I also wouldn't let her touch my face or paws. But Laura gave me space and let me take my time to get used to living there. And I quickly realized that no one wasn't going to hurt me - everyone just wanted to LOVE me! It took a couple of months but now I'm so comfortable here that I'll lay on the futon out in the living room flat on my back. And I throw myself at Laura's feet - begging to be picked up. I also don't mind at all having my nails clipped, my eyes cleared and my ears cleaned. And I actually getting my coat combed out. It was all shaved short when she got me but now it's long and silky - I look REALLY pretty! Laura soon realized something about me - something she'd seen in both Penny and Percy when she adopted them. Both of them were adults when she adopted them and they didn't know a thing about toys. It took awhile till they knew what to do with them! And I hadn't seen toys before either! I saw Percy and Penny going CRAZY for anything mom waved or tossed at them. At first I kinda hung back and looked at them like "What are you guys doing?" But in a couple of months I realized how much fun toys where and now I'm like a little kitten and go CRAZY for them! Man, what I've been missing my first three years! I'm a showcat now just like Percy and Penny. And I'm really good at it! I win lots of "Bests" and I've made it all the way to BEST in the Northwest and I'm also 4th in the entire WORLD! Showing is a lot of fun and mom says it lets other people know how great adult shelter cats are so I don't mind strutting my stuff if it means more kitties will get adopted! At shows Percy, Penny and I are all spokeskitties for the wonderful adult shelter cats looking for homes!
