PAW --> Available Adult Cats -->  "Indy"


 


Name: Indy
Color: DMH Black
Age: Born Approx. Oct. 15, 2007
Gender: Spayed Female.

History: 
A little feral mom (unsocialized to people) was being fed in a garage 
along with her four kittens. The caregiver tried to keep them contained 
within the garage (with the intention of getting the mom spayed) but 
unfortunately, the mom escaped.  All attempts to find her failed.  This 
event happened just as winter came upon us, late in 2007.  There 
really was no other choice but to bring the kittens indoors and begin their 
socialization process.  Indy is petite and very pretty.  Her medium length 
fur has a lovely healthy gloss to it.  She is very clean and uses her 
scratching post.  



Personality:  
Indy is still a little bit shy.  She took a turn in the adoption room at 
PAW's Petcetera location and after a month, made great progress.  Her 
PAW friends decided to give her a temporary reward for being such a brave 
little cat and placed her in a foster home where she has the exclusive 
attention of three young women.  Indy is very curious about people and is 
can usually be found quietly observing all the daily activities that fill 
a home.  She sometimes backs away when approached, but once she is in your 
arms, she relaxes and enjoys the closeness.  Indy is very comfortable 
around other cats.  

 

Gaining the full trust of a little cat like Indy is an extremely gratifying 
process.  She needs a person that will dedicate time every day to building a 
bond with her.  Playtime is a relatively easy and especially fun way to bring a 
little cat along.  A couple of fifteen minute play sessions every day go a long 
way to creating a safe and loving environment in which Indy can blossom.  She is 
already well aware of what is involved with play time!  She especially enjoys 
teasers, string toys and a cat tunnel that she can pop in and out of.
