54785700

Located At: Peninsula Regional Animal Shelter
Description: My name is Fancy ("Indoor" Working Cat).
I am a female, grey and white Domestic Mediumhair mix.

Age: The shelter staff think I am about 2 years and 6 months old.
More Info: I have been at the shelter since Apr 27, 2024.
*While listed as a "working cat" Fancy is an indoor cat (not feral, but not overly social with humans). Her adoption fee is $25.00 to reflect the working cat adoption fee as she is not a kitty that will sit on your lap or seek out affection in the interim. She is not an outdoor cat and will need to be adopted to an inside home.*

Calling all shy kitty lover out there! My name is Fancy, formerly known as Meowly Cyrus, and I found myself at the shelter with my litter of littles a while back. Now that my babies are weaned and have been adopted, it is time for me to focus on myself. I am SO beautiful and it makes people want to snuggle and cuddle me! I am not that kind of girl though and I like to keep my distance, but be near. While I am not "feral" I am certainly not a lap cat and I won't be a kitty that will want to be picked up and loved on; at least, not in the beginning. I am the kind of lady that needs my space to feel out my surroundings. I like to do things at my own pace and I need an adopter that is willing to allow me to come out of my shell on my own terms. If I am treated properly, I will likely find that I do like human companionship, just at a distance. I may even find myself on your lap at some point! I just need the time and the love to get me to that point.

I was recently adopted, but was returned when my adopter could not groom me or clip my nails. It is going to take me a long time and a lot of bond building for me to trust someone in that vulnerable position. I really am a sweet girl, I just need time and patience.

If you are looking for a kitty that is in need of a very understanding and loving home, consider meeting with me. I will not be a kitty that can be picked up and taken into the meeting room. I would like to meet with my adopters slowly and in my cage; my safe place.

Due to how shy I am, I may not go to a home with active dogs or young children who have never lived with fearful animals. This is for my safety as well as the safety of my future family.
