From our Socializer:
Ms. Winnie-Pooh, she has come so far. We think she was about 4 or 5 months old when we rescued her, right here in Pasadena. Winnie is a sweet kitty, has a little sass…, but who doesn’t like a self-assertive kitty who knows what she wants. Smart kitty, sleek silk feel, all black fur. Truly feels like silk. She hardly sheds that we can see, and is always perfectly groomed, all done by herself.
When we rescued her, she did come out of her shell, was learning to play, some interaction and attention, then suddenly she regressed and didn’t want to be around us. One day about a year or so ago, out-of-the-blue, she decides she really loves us humans. I was like, who is this kitty???? Winnie, wow, she is sooo sweet. She wants to rub all over for your continued pets. She can be a little sassy, especially if another kitty is vying for the attention, but she will stay right there beside you, until you decide to do something else. If she sees you sitting again, here she comes… right to you haha. Such cute affection from her.
We have been getting her used to a brush, she does ok, just a little at a time. She doesn’t really need brushing but we work at all the various needs for a cat to get used to.
We think she is best to be your only fur buddy in the house. She does need a person who has some good cat language experience, but she is truly a sweetie once she knows you. She lives fine with all the other cats at our rescue, but she prefers to be the only sass-puss. However, when I am petting many kitties at a time, she comes right to my side wanting her pets, no matter what other kitty is there.
Another reason Winnie should be with an experienced cat lover, is we note for some reason when she is up high, and we reach to pet her, she reacts to it as a threat. On the ground, it’s like she is a different cat. She needs a little work and encouragement on that. Otherwise, she simply is a nice little kitty. She doesn’t have any bad habits that we have found.
If you would like to adopt our Winnie-Pooh, please let us know. She really deserves her own person to love.
