Rebecca

Meet Rebecca, a beautiful older kitten with a calico coat and a heart full of love and gentle affection. She spent the last 4 months in a wonderful foster home with her sister Janet.

To start with Rebecca was very shy and chose to hide away and hiss, but her foster carer was very patient and gave her all the time she needed to reveal her affectionate, gentle nature. She is a very playful kitten and ‘Da Bird’ and wand toys are her all time favourites.

She settled in well with the resident cat and eventually took over her carer’s bed and learnt to accept pats. Whilst her siblings and the resident cat were off somewhere else, Rebecca was often found fast asleep next to her foster Mum and would let her give belly rubs and lots of pats.

Rebecca is not at the stage of being picked up but will be a perfect companion for someone living in a calm and loving household.

Due to her shyer personality it’s really important that she is kept in a separate safe room on her own for at least two weeks so she can get used to her new surroundings and the sounds and smells within it. When she is ready you will be able to introduce her gradually to the rest of the house, always allowing her to run back to her safe room if needed. It’s a good idea to provide two or three hiding places for her in the lounge so that she can venture out but still feel secure at first.

Rebecca can peacefully live with another cat, provided that introductions are made slowly and carefully, following our guidance.

If you’re searching for an affectionate older kitten and don’t mind being patient, Rebecca might just be the perfect fit for you. Please feel free to come to SAFE Haven in Roseville any day between 10am and 4pm to meet her.
