My name is Frank and I came into a local shelter from a large hoarding situation. I am learning that humans are good and safe, as I didn't have a ton of people experience. My favorite things are treat time and play time. I have been quietly been finding my "meow" and will chat when no one is close by!
As I am a shy boy who grew up with many other cats I would love a forever home with a nice social cat buddy. Right now I have a buddy, I call Knarf, who lives in the mirror and he can be super fun to play with.
As I am shy I like being pet on my own terms, sometimes it is good, and sometimes I get scared. If things feel like too much I like having my carrier around so I can give myself a break. I would do best in a home without a lot of activity and where I can warm up in my own time. I am a nice boy and when I am scared I freeze vs. swat. I have perfect potty manners and always use my littler box.
Frank is from a local impound. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an
adoption application.
An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract.

Want to adopt a kitten? We highly recommend you consider bringing home two instead of one! Adopting kittens in pairs has been proven to be beneficial for cats' emotional and behavioral well-being and greatly improves the likelihood of long-term adopter happiness as a result. Adopting more than one kitten also reduces the risk of "Single Kitten Syndrome" (also known as Tarzan Syndrome), a symptom of under-socialization during a kitten's most formative weeks. Kittens who are under-socialized may develop aggressive tendencies toward both other animals and humans as they grow, creating lifelong behavioral issues for owners.
