About Butternut
Hi, I'm Butternut, a shy but sweet 2-year-old kitty looking for a patient and understanding family to call my own. My journey began as a stray, so I haven't had much human interaction until now. Because of this, I'll need to be an indoor-only cat, where I can feel safe and secure in my new environment.
It might take me a little while to warm up to my new family, but once I do, I promise to be the most loving companion you could ask for. I'll need plenty of places to hide and retreat to when things get overwhelming for me. These hiding spots will be my "safe haven", where I can decompress and regain my confidence.
My ideal family will have experience with cats and understand the cues when I'm feeling overwhelmed. A quiet and calm household would suit me best, with no kids under 12 to ensure a stress-free environment for me to thrive in.
Currently, I'm on behavior medication to help me cope with my timidness, but don't worry, you'll have a free vet consult upon my adoption to discuss the possibility of weaning me off. With patience, love, and understanding, I know I can overcome my shyness and become the wonderful companion I know I can be.
So, if you're looking for a gentle soul who just needs a little extra time to blossom, then I might be the perfect match for you. Let's take this journey together and create a bond that will last a lifetime.
RESTRICTIONS: Quiet/Calm household Experienced owner No kids under 12 Indoors only
