Notes from Trenton Cats Rescue
Selkie is a spunky but also shy little girl who likes people and can tolerate other cats who are not aggressive. She was first found as an abandoned newborn, was bottle-fed by a foster mom, and was adopted when she was about 10 weeks old (she will is 2 years old). Her adoptive family moved one year later and could not take her with them, so Selkie came back to her original foster home, which includes more cats than she cares for. She likes to play with toys and chase the laser point dot, but she immediately gives way if another cat joins in the play. She is a fan of bird- and squirrel-watching through a window or from the screened-in porch and loves to drink from a kitty fountain. She would be happiest as the only cat in a home or with a cat who is gentle with others, perhaps an older cat. If you'd like to meet Selkie or think this cat would be a good match for your family, please complete our adoption questionnaire at http://www.trentoncats.org/adoption-questionnaire/ and let your references know someone will be contacting them soon. All our cats are spayed/neutered, up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations, dewormed and flea-treated, tested for FIV/FeLV, and microchipped prior to adoption. Thanks for opting to adopt!
