Fred
 Available for adoption
Fostered in London, Ontario

My name is Fred and I’m a timid little black kitten who came from a feral colony. I am currently learning the ropes of indoor life, and my foster family says I’m warming up more and more every single day. I am about 11-12 weeks old. While I tend to hide, especially when I’m uncomfortable, I will eventually come out to play if the environment is quiet and there are only a few, quiet, people around. With the right time, love, and patience, I will eventually come out of my shell and not be so scared. I am able to be handled but prefer that you not pick me up if you don’t have to. Maybe eventually I’ll get there, though! Once I learn that human hands are kind. If I’m feeling safe around you, I will come and sleep nearby to let you know I am here. I am starting to interact more with toys and will even sometimes play with toys with my humans. I love to play with my siblings, Georgie and Henry, and come out of my shell most when they’re around. I would do great to be adopted with a sibling, or into a home with another playful cat who will help me continue coming out of my shell. I think I would do best in a home without dogs, though I may be able to learn to cohabitate with a quiet or older dog. I would do best in a quiet family who will give me time and space while I continue to learn that all of this new stuff is safe. Because of this, I would do best in a home without young children who may not know how to handle scared kittens - I think I’d do best with kids over 10 years old. An adoption fee of one hundred and fifty applies to me. I have been neutered, dewormed, am up to date on relevant vaccines, and ready to go to my new home!
