Poppy

Name: Poppy

Age: 1 year approx

Sex: Female

Breed: Domestic Short Hair

Ref number: 69

Personality:
Poppy is a nervous girl who struggled with the cattery environment. She is now in a foster home where she feels comfortable to access her resources but is still fearful of interactions with her carers She likes the comfort of her own room to return to if she is unsure. Her foster carers use a hands off approach to give Poppy choice and control over interactions. During this time, Poppy has not wanted to initiate for contact from them.

Behaviour:
Poppy spends a lot of the day keeping to herself in the foster home. She feels most comfortable coming out of her room to explore when the house is quiet from the evening onwards. Overnight, she will play with her toys and her foster carers can sometimes hear her getting the zoomies. Poppy’s adopters will need to continue the hands off approach to respect her boundaries.

Housing:
Due to Poppy coming from a multi-cat household, it is unknown whether she has had much positive interaction with people. For this reason, Poppy is looking for her own unused room situated in the downstairs of the property where she can have full, easy access to the outdoors or a safe, secure, sheltered outbuilding or shed. This can be in a spacious garden or an alternative similar set up. Poppy’s adopters will need to use a hands off approach and live onsite to provide them with their essentials such as fresh food and water. It may be that she will prefer to live permanently like this but she may gradually build trust with their owners and surroundings and choose to live a more conventional lifestyle in a home. Please provide photos of your set up along with your application to process your application further. Please note, Poppy is currently in a foster home in Locks Heath. The successful applicant will be able to meet Poppy in his foster home with a member of staff present.

Children/pets:
Poppy will need to be cared and housed with adults only. She needs to be the only pet in the household/setting.

Vet history:
Poppy is neutered, microchipped, flea, wormed and fully vaccinated. Poppy has no known medical conditions. 4 weeks free pet insurance included with adoption

Adoption fee:
The adoption fee is £50. If you would like to make an additional donation over and above the adoption fee, this would be hugely appreciated.

We reserve the right to remove a reserve at any stage of the adoption process if we believe it is in the best interest of the cat.
