🌷🔮 MEET ALIRAH 🔮🌷

Nature
Hi I am Alirah! I'm a gorgeous, shy tabby girl who came to the Angels after being found at a house all by myself. Foster Mum says I have the softest fur and the most beautiful spots on my belly too. Foster Mum used to call me ‘ostrich’ because I would bury my head in my nice fluffy bed. Now she calls me super model because I love nothing better than posing and showing off my best traits.

I'm really comfortable with my Foster Mum now I have realised she loves me. She will pat/cuddle me for as long as I want and best of all feeds me. I am still very shy around new people and will hide, but I am happy for them to pick me up and cuddle and pat me for hours.

Companions (Children, Cats & Dogs)
When I came into care I met some much smaller kittens, and I was so interested in what they were up to. Foster Mum introduced us and we all clicked and now I have five foster brothers and sisters who I get on with so well. I am definitely a fan of other felines and would love a new home with a confident cat friend to play and snuggle with and teach me more about trusting humans. Maybe you can check out my foster siblings and see if you'd like to take one of them home too!

I haven't met any slobbery dogs yet, but I think I could even live with a calm cat-savvy doggo as long as we have nice slow introductions.

I have only met one little person, she was a full of energy 3 year old and although I was a bit scared at first, I was happy for her to pat me when she was calm, quiet and gentle, but I think I may be suited to older kids who will give me the time and space to learn that they are my friends.

Likes / Dislikes
Even though I am shy I love pats and cuddles so much, I will just lie in your arms while you shower me with love. I will also suck you in to rub those cute spots on my belly; if I am tired I will let you stroke as long as you like but if I am ready for play your hand will become my toy and I will use my teef and paws to fight you off. Foster Mum says I am such a good girl as soon as you stop moving, I realise you are not my toy and let go. I'm still little so of course I love all toys, cat trees to climb, wrestling with my foster siblings and eating.

I'm currently eating a mix of cooked chicken breast mince and Royal Canin babycat mousse but will soon be ready to move on and try other foods. You may need to experiment a little to see what I like the best. In the meantime, I am happy to eat biscuits too and like to have them available to snack on when I want.

I also use the litter box like a champ, currently I use pine wood pellets. I’ll let you in on a secret, if one of those pellets falls out of the box, they are also fun to play soccer with and bite. Good thing is they don't hurt my belly if I happen to eat one, they just end up back in the litter box a day or so later hehehe!

I do not like loud noises, especially the vacuum but Foster Mum uses the stick vacuum in our room, and I am curious enough to peak out from my hiding spot, the big vacuum is a big NO THANK YOU. We also have a million planes fly overhead every day and some of the bigger louder ones give me a fright but the other less noisy one I now don't notice.
I am still getting used to quick movements from the humans, so I may look like I'm scared if you reach for me too quick but after some time, I'm sure I will settle and realise my new family are not so scary.

My PURR-fect home would be with a person or family who are not so busy, and are calm and understanding of my shyness but happy to shower me in love, cuddles and pats. I would really like a fur friend, if you don’t already have one at home maybe you could adopt one of my foster siblings too!
