A Pep Talk for Crux and Sierra

Okay girls, we know you’re ready to find a very special adopter!

Crux — you have come so far since you first arrived at Cat Town! Your inner confident cat is on full display when you play with so many visitors. You pounce and leap and twirl and are clearly having fun. And all the while, your progress is growing by leaps and bounds, too!

And lately, you’re letting people sit closer and closer, when before you would have dashed away.

When you first arrived at Cat Town you were so uncertain. You’d hide out in cubbies away from people and other cats, trying to feel safe in a strange new place. It’s great to now see you spend all your time in our big, open space with so many other cats and people. While you’re still a shy girl and not ready for pets, when we get out a toy, you are on it! And lately, you’re letting people sit closer and closer, when before you would have dashed away. We are so impressed with your progress, bringing you closer and closer to finding a forever home.

Crux, you are such a stunning tuxedo girl that everyone notices your striking beauty. Someday soon a patient and loving guardian will see what we see in you, and want to give both you and Sierra a home. You may now be starting to look for your person, too, because when you’re not playing, you’re perched on a chair watching everyone or looking out the window — and now your friend Sierra, has taken up the same watch!

Sierra, we know you’re shy about being touched as well, but people can’t help it: your unusual gray abby-tabby coloring — especially the lovely ombre gray stripes on your tail and legs — makes wanting to pet you the very first thought in our minds. We know you’re still building up courage to let admirers in just a little bit closer as you calmly perch on your favorite infinity scratcher (right next to the window, of course), and we are rooting for you to finally learn how great it is to have a human best friend. It’s just as good as having a feline friend, trust us!

We know that Crux has been a good role model for you — just a little more brave, and full-on when it comes to playing! We know that by watching her example, you’ll eventually graduate from your “one-paw-in, one-paw-out” approach to being all-in, too, but in your own way. You don’t have to leap in the air like Crux — she’s been practicing for months! When you’re ready to join in, we know you’ll have fun, and every baby step towards letting your guard down more is a step we celebrate with you.

One of these days, you both will be perched on a chair or leaning on the window, watching the passers-by, only to discover that a visitor inside, right behind you — someone very patient, with a soft spot for cats like you — is ready to invite you home to stay! We hope that day is soon, but for now, you have all the time you need with us.
