Hello, my names Savvi and this is my daughter Merlo. There was 4 of us all together however I am very thankful to say a very kind, caring, patient man took the chance and adopted my other two daughters and rescued them. It now means there is only us two left out of the family.
We were all found running and scarpering near a busy main road where a member of public seen us and worried for our safety. She reported this to Zoe's Ark and within 24 hours we were all trapped and brought in. I very quickly showed signs of having never known love or a home not by aggression but fear. My daughters however were a little more feisty but mummy Zoe worked with what she had and has brough us on very well.
We aren't perfect, I'm still very nervous & shy but I come out so much more now and though I'm apprehensive of touch I enjoy it much more now, once I realise you aren't going to hurt me. My daughter Merlo comes out absolutely fine for food, doesn't mind being stroked when eating and has shown very positive steps forward however she too is still nervous and doesn't enjoy being cornered, she will run.
Finding a home sooner rather then later is very important for cats like us, there are many many cats in rescue which takes away from as much 1 on 1 time with us. There is also things always going on, changes and this can unsettle us time & time again. Though the rescue does its best for us, its nothing in comparison of what a home to call our own can do for us in bringing us forward. A home with other cats would be fine for us but dogs are a no no. Young children would also not be a good idea as we are far to nervous for chaos and loud noises however older sensible children (15+) would be fine. People need to understand we will need time however we promise it will feel very rewarding when we progress and come around. Constant busy households also wouldnt be best for us as we would prefer a calm and quieter enviroment.
Our nervous/shy personalities play a part in the fact we are overlooked but what also doesn't help us is our colour meaning we have 2 things against us. We just hope one day both these things can be overlooked and just like my other two daughters, we can have a place to call our own and be loved for us. We eat well, we are fully litter trained... We cause absolutely no problems at all. Please just give us a chance. Thankyou for your time.
If you feel you could give us our happy ever after please feel free to fill out a form on the 'Adoption' option below. Thankyou again.
