About Yomi
I'm Yomi! I'm 4 years old, and I am the world's most beautiful DIVA. My foster mum currently describes me as a confident, friendly girl who loves to show affection by licking. If I really like you, I might give you a gentle little love-nibble. I love sitting near a human while they do everyday mundane things. I will do ANYTHING for treats, and if you feed me wet food, I will love you forever!
Now that I'm in foster care free from other cats, I've been able to flourish into a wonderful companion. You see, I wasn't handling the shelter too well. As nice as all the other humans were, having other cats around was really stressing me out. My stress levels and my longing for affection were at odds with each other, and I would find myself getting overstimulated easily, even by nice things like pats and love. So I would lash out. Some cats that get anxiety normally hide away, but I'm very confident and not shy about my feelings.
My first night in my new foster home, I was relieved to be away from other cats, but also nervous about a new environment. But since my foster carer has taken the time to make my living situation as stress-free as possible, I have been able to unwind and have no reason to be on edge.
If you are kind enough to make my environment as stress-free as possible, and go slow with your affections, I will settle in and love you so much. Sometimes, if I am spooked, I can revert back to being stressed and lash out. My foster mum noticed this, and implemented a new rule where you are to announce yourself before coming near me, stepping behind me, or making sudden movements. Ever since then, I have had no issues!
I love treats, cat teaser toys, more treats, and soft plastics. Yes, I just ADORE the scrunchie sound from rubbing all over a plastic bag! My favourite place to sit is the inside of a large blue Ikea bag. It makes me feel like I'm sailing! But I also love sitting on the top of my scratching barrel in a sunspot by the window. However, I must be able to minimize my exposure to the sun!
I would be best suited to a quiet home without children, without too many sudden movements or loud surprising noises. And I cannot stress this enough - NO OTHER PETS! Nothing stresses me out more than other pets. No exceptions, no slow introductions, just NO OTHER PETS, please? Despite my baggage, I am surprisingly good with visitors who are gentle and understanding with me. So I can't wait to meet you soon! My foster home is in West Perth.
Adoption details
Just browse some of the photos of our beautiful cats available for adoption or come to our shelter in Shenton Park to meet our many beautiful kitties.
Please be aware that the cats featured on this page represent only a very small portion of the total number of beautiful felines we have available for adoption. We do not include any of our kittens on this page, as the turnover for youngsters is simply too high to keep up-dating, but we always have many beautiful kittens looking for homes!
Also many of our cats and kittens are currently staying in temporary foster homes out in the community but are still looking for a loving home, so please call Cat Haven in advance if you want to make arrangements for a meeting with a foster cat.
