My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Matilda, the gentle soul with a heart as soft as her fur. Life has been a bit of a whirlwind for this shy but sweet kitty, and she’s ready to find an indoor-only forever home where she can finally feel safe and loved.

Matilda’s perfect home is calm and quiet, without kids or other animals, giving her the space she needs to come out of her shell. She’s a kitty who moves at her own pace, so patience and understanding will be the key to earning her trust. At first, she may prefer to hide, which makes cozy, cave-like beds a must. Add in a tall cat tree for her to perch on and survey her surroundings, and you’ll be giving her the sanctuary she’s been dreaming of.

Once Matilda feels secure, her sweetness will shine through, and you’ll see just how much love this shy girl has to give. If you’re ready to offer Matilda the time and space she needs to blossom, she’ll reward you with her quiet, heartwarming companionship.
