**************************************************************
Meet Buttons, a delightful and charming feline from 2nd Chance Cat Rescue, located in Cranbourne. Her journey began on the streets, but she has since flourished at the rescue. While Buttons is shy and independent with her stunning eyes and soft coat, she's sure to steal your heart when you meet her in person.
This sweet girl is an introvert, valuing a quiet environment and a cozy corner to call her own. She may be cautious initially, but with a patient and understanding adopter, she'll gradually reveal her true personality—a loving and loyal companion. Buttons would make an ideal pet for someone with a calm lifestyle and perhaps a working household, as she enjoys her solitude during the day.
With the right amount of love and patience, Buttons will undoubtedly blossom into an affectionate and devoted friend and companion. Buttons needs a tranquil home where she can settle in gradually. A slow introduction, perhaps using an octagonal playpen, will give her the freedom to observe her new surroundings while feeling secure. While not suited for a family with young children or dogs, she would make a wonderful addition to a quiet, loving household.
Buttons would suit someone with knowledge and understanding of how to build a bond with a shy/ reserved natured cat. Ideally suites someone who can give her 1:1 attention and daily work with Buttons to help her to gain her confidence and become outwardly affectionate. Buttons will become your best friend with the use of treats and a great way to build a lasting bond with her.
