About Butter
Hello I'm Xanthe,💗
I'm a very special girl who has been in the GAWS system almost a year!
I was a mumma who was pregnant when I came here then had my kittens. I did not trust people at all .
I've come such a long way with the help of my foster mum, I have learnt to really enjoy pats, I purr, roll over, headbutt, knead, and make the cutest chirps.
However small things do spook me still, I'm still working on coming when I am called with clicking fingers I want to but I'm just scared to make the first move.
I'm ok with being picked up and moved but don't like being held for long. I'm happy for you to pick me up and put me on the bed for pats. As long as you reassure me and let me relax within 5 minutes I'll be purring away!
I have recently been noticed sleeping up on the bed with my foster carer so I'm finding my confidence in being closer to humans but do LOVE to snuggle with my cat friends even more.
I LOVE my food, I'll come running when I hear my food bowl!
I wont lie I really would like another feline playmate or mates in my new home. I will be more interested in them to start with, but if I am in a home with a cat savvy, patient human that will allow me to grow at my own pace I will be forever grateful .
Please give me a chance,
Love Xanthe xo
