Any special needs or traits an adopter should know? Mouse was a transfer in from another shelter, and has been in foster for a month working on her socialization. She was very fearful when she first arrived, but is now warming up. Mouse could benefit from starting in a small room with only 1-2 hiding spots that the owner can approach and pet her in. She will eventually start purring and rolling around. She loves wet food and creamies, therefore that's a great way to help her socialization. She is a lovely girl, and will be a great companion when she is comfortable.
