Biography
Nugget is a very sweet girl. Her favorite place to spend her time is in the cat tree by the window watching the birds outside. She's shy at first but warms up with treats (her favorite is Temptations - she won't even touch the good stuff we've tried giving her) and slow pets. Once comfortable, she will snuggle up with you and will purr and drool while making biscuits. She loves to play, especially with teaser wands.
Nugget came to us a few weeks ago because her previous family had to move and they were unable to take her with them. We were hoping she would become best friends with our cat but she is telling us she would prefer to be the only pet in the home. She has mostly warmed up to our cat, but doesn't have any interest in playing with him and is nervous around him, even though all he wants to do is play with her. She has also warmed up to our dogs but is still nervous around them as well. If you have another pet that will leave her alone for the most part, she would likely do just fine after a while.
She was an indoor/outdoor cat with her previous family but has done just fine being indoor only with us. Nugget just needs a loving home where she can spend her days free of stress.
