Potter - A Little Magic, a Little Courage & a Whole Lot of Purrs! Take one look at the lightning bolt-ish marking on Potter's forehead, and you'll understand exactly how this little girl got her name! Yes, Potter is a girl. But with a marking like that, what else were we supposed to call her? Potter was found as a stray, and while she's now safe in foster care, she's still learning that people aren't something she needs to be afraid of.And she's making progress, one cuddle at a time. About Potter Sweet and affectionate once she's comfortable Shy and easily frightened Loves pets and attention Purrs up an absolute storm Loves playing with toys Does well with other cats Needs a feline buddy Best suited for older, respectful childrenPotter is one of those kittens who can send a few mixed messages at first. When you reach toward her, she tends to back away. She's scared and isn't quite sure what you're planning to do.But here's the interesting part...Once you pick her up and start petting her, she absolutely LOVES it! The purr motor kicks into high gear, and suddenly that frightened little girl is soaking up every bit of affection you're willing to give.Potter isn't aggressive. She's simply scared and still figuring out that those reaching hands are bringing love, not something to fear.She clearly enjoys affection. She just hasn't quite figured out how to ask for it yet. And when she's not working on her people skills, Potter loves playing with toys and doing all those fun kitten things!

She just needs someone willing to help her connect the dots-that the hands reaching for her are the same hands that make her feel so loved.And maybe, with a little time, patience, and a whole lot of love, Potter will discover that she doesn't need a magic wand to be brave. Sometimes the greatest magic is simply learning that you're safe and loved.
