Arrow? Let this handsome boy's love fly straight to your heart! When taken in by KittyKind as a kitten (DOB 8/2023), he was terrified, hissing, and hiding. But, a dedicated fosterer helped his true, sweet temperament emerge and, after weeks of socializing, Arrow was receptive to love and human company (not to mention toys and treats.) Now in a foster home with other cats, his current fosterer reports: "Arrow is doing great! It took about a week for him to warm up to us, and he did hiss at us in the beginning, but after I played with him, it was leaps and bounds with him getting comfortable. After two play sessions, he was no longer wary of me. He now comes when I approach (or call his name.) When you pay him any attention, he immediately comes over and flops at your feet or in your lap. Like constantly flopping down on the ground is his signature move! He loves to be pet, anywhere, including belly! He is so good with being touched that I was able to trim his claws in one session while he lay there receiving pets. He's on his way to being a real lap cat: If you plop him on your lap, he�ll stay there ... until it's time to play. He LOVES to play, especially if it involves a chase; whether he�s trying to catch a laser pointer or feathers on a string ... or another cat ... or having a bout of zoomies, Arrow has such joy in running! And, he's such a softie, literally and metaphorically (he is the softest cat I�ve ever met)! He may still get startled with big movements and noises, but, if scared, he always comes back once you reassure him." He must be adopted into a home with another young, energetic cat, as he needs a feline buddy as well as a devoted human. Arrow is negative for FIV/FeLV, neutered, and up-to-date on his vaccinations.
