Meet Shaggy! 🐾
Shaggy is a teeny-tiny purring machine with a soft spot for the quieter things in life. He loves a cosy little cave to curl up in, a peaceful environment and plenty of beauty sleep. He spends much of his day snoozing, with occasional bursts of playful energy (usually in the late evening!).
Shaggy is still building his confidence and will need a patient home that understands he may always be a little on the shy side. With time, love and a calm environment, we think he’s destined to become a beautiful fluffy lap cat who will happily curl up beside his favourite person.
When Shaggy first came off the streets, he was suffering from mange, but we’re happy to report that he has now recovered after treatment. His gorgeous coat is still growing back, and he’s getting softer and fluffier by the day! (See last pic to see Shaggy pre mange)
Shaggy is looking for a quiet, understanding home where he can feel safe, settle in at his own pace and show his sweet little personality. 💜
(Psst... If you're looking for a cat with particular personality traits, get in touch with our team of volunteers at Sugar & Spice Cat Rescue and we'll pair you with your ideal match! 💜)
‼️ As with most cats in a new environment or with new people, he may be slightly shy at first, but give him some time and treats and he’s sure to come around!
If you'd like to meet him, please submit an application (see below) – the more information you can provide about your household, lifestyle and history with cats, the better 🤗
