Notes from Sheltering Hands, Inc
Hi, I’m Cupcake , the resident cuddle MONSTER and professional productivity wrecker. If you sit down, that’s it — game over. I will be in your lap, on your chest, draped across your shoulder, or otherwise attached to you like a warm, purring accessory. No exceptions, no negotiations. I take my snuggling duties very seriously.
I’m super sweet and my purr motor runs nonstop, but don’t let that fool you — I’ve got a playful streak too. If it can be chased, swatted, or chomped, I’m on it. I’m curious about everything happening around me and I love exploring every corner of my new world.
When I meet new cats or kittens, I can be a bit hissy at the start. It’s not personal; I just need a couple days to figure out who’s who and make sure everything feels safe. Once I’ve had that adjustment time, I’m perfectly fine and happy to coexist. I promise I warm up quickly — I just like to ease into things.
I tolerate dogs, but if I’m being honest, I’d probably be happiest in a home without them. I’m a gentle soul, and I prefer my world a little quieter and a lot more predictable.
If you’re looking for a loving shadow who wants to be part of every moment of your day — whether you planned for it or not — I’m your girl.
