Sooty – Sweet, shy girl looking for a patient forever home 🖤

Sooty is a gorgeous black Domestic Short Hair girl aged 2 years and 4 months who is searching for a calm and understanding forever home.

She originally came into rescue because she did not get along with the dog in her previous home. Since moving into foster care, Sooty has settled in beautifully and is currently living happily with the resident male cat. The two get along very well and love playing together, so Sooty could happily live with another friendly feline companion.

Sooty is naturally a shy and sensitive girl, and she can be nervous in new environments or around new people. When she first arrives in a home, she is likely to hide away while she settles and learns to feel safe. She will need patient adopters who are happy to give her the time and space she needs to come out of her shell at her own pace.

Once she feels comfortable, Sooty’s lovely personality starts to shine through. She is very sweet, affectionate in her own gentle way, and enjoys sitting with her humans once she trusts them. While she is happy spending time on her own, she will come and seek affection and company when she feels relaxed and secure.

She also has a playful side and loves toys she can chase around, especially toys she can bat, chase, kick or pounce on. Food is definitely the way to Sooty’s heart! She absolutely loves treats, biscuits, and mealtimes, and a few Dreamies go a long way in helping her build confidence!

Sooty currently enjoys:

* Whiskas wet food

* Blink cat food

* Dreamies treats

* Any dry biscuits, currently eating Nood

* Toys she can chase, and kicker toys

* Clumping cat litter, although she isn’t particularly fussy

Although Sooty previously had access to the outdoors in her old home, her previous owners advised that she rarely chose to go outside.

Because of her timid nature and tendency to be easily startled, we feel Sooty would be best suited to a quieter home with the company of another cat. We are unsure whether she would be suitable for young children due to how shy she can be.

Sooty is:
✔ Spayed
✔ Microchipped
✔ Up to date with vaccinations

The successful adopter will need to collect Sooty from the Worsley area of Manchester.

If you can offer Sooty the patience, kindness, and understanding she needs, you’ll gain a sweet and loving companion who will reward your care with trust, affection, and gentle companionship. 🖤
