Leah

Leah. Her name means a place of delight and beauty, and that is just the perfect comparison to this beautiful little cat. Do you like kitties that don’t require a lot of attention and just like to lie by the wood stove and look pretty? Are you an experienced cat person, with patience in allowing little shy cats to adjust? If you answered yes to those questions, Leah might be your cat. Leah is relaxed and a bit shy. She enjoys sparkly rattle toys with feathers and other interactive toys, as long as the interaction is slow. She tracks lasers, but doesn’t chase them. She can be skittish and sometimes likes to hide. When she hides, she enjoys watching what is going on with her alert, and beautiful eyes. Although she hides, she is able to be touched when hidden without a negative response. She is independent, yet settled and calm. She enjoys being touched on her head and her back. Although she accepts attention, she does enjoy being left alone. We feel she would do best in a quiet, adult environment with a patient person who will allow her time to adjust. Although we understand the concern of adopters worried that their shy kitties aren’t doing well, we also like to encourage people to take the time and be patient in letting the cats adjust after coming home. Please come meet Leah and give her a chance at happiness. We know that a lot of adopters like kitties who jump into their arms upon first meeting for “love at first sight,” but sometimes happiness and happy tails take a little bit longer, and are worth the wait.
