Poppet

ADOPTION REQUIREMENTS -- BONDED PAIR WITH SPIDER -- INDOORS ONLY -- VERY TIMID CATS -- NO CHILDREN -- NO OTHER PETS -- CAT EXPERIENCE REQUIRED

Poppet and Spider are sisters who came to the RSPCA at a very bad time in their lives. They are a bonded pair and must be adopted together. Poppet is much calmer and friendlier, while Spider has a very quirky sense of humour and loves racing around the house. After being nursed back to health at the RSPCA, they were placed in foster care to develop their social skills. Initially both Poppet and Spider were very wary of human interaction, gradually with a quiet environment, lots of time and the lure of food, they came out. Poppet is more social and will sit near you and allow you to pat her, often rewarding you with a purr if you manage to pat her just right! She likes gentle movements and does not like hands coming down from above. She does not like to be picked up or handled yet. Poppet will talk to you if she wants something and will often walk around calling if she can't find you or Spider. She loves treats and is very interested in whatever you are cooking in the kitchen. She will come and sit next to you, stretching up to tap your leg gently to let you know she is there and would very much like to be your taste tester please. Poppet and Spider will need people who are willing to give them time to settle down and slowly adapt to their new home. They are indoor cats and due to their temperaments would not be able to cope with the big wide world outside. Poppet and Spider will be a long-term project for their new family, but with time and patience will reward them will love and lot of fun times.
