Name, age: Papaye, 11yr
Likes: Delectables Squeeze Up Treats, eating treats from forks (so funny!), giving slow blinks to his humans, quietly sitting near his humans while they're relaxing or doing work!
Dislikes: Unfamiliar adults getting too close before showing him they're safe, wand toys (at this moment), being put in his carrier, being touched when he is unwilling, and being pet from above.
What would be the ideal home? A quiet and calm home that will respect his boundaries, with many places where he can rest and watch his people.
Good with other cats? Unknown but possible
Good with dogs? Unknown
Good with children? Most likely not.
Personality: Papaye is a well-behaved and independent cat who loves observing the humans around whom he feels safe. Treats, patience, and respect for his boundaries are the way to get to his heart! He loves to show you that he loves you by giving you slow blinks (if you slowly blink back to him, he will keep slowly blinking at you for hours as long as you keep on going!), stretching towards his humans, making silly noises and talking to you, and showing you with his body language that he feels comfortable and safe!
How long will it take to settle into a new environment? Papaye may need around eight weeks to start to feel comfortable.
Any special needs or traits an adopter should know? Papaye can be anxious from time to time; however once you gain his trust, he will show you that he loves you, and it will be so rewarding!
