In the shelter’s words
Name: Sam Age: Adult / DOB 3/14/2019 Weight: 12 lbs Gender: Male Breed: Flame Point Siamese Coat Length: Short Color: Orange Dog friendly: Yes Cat friendly: Yes Child friendly: Older children who respect his boundaries Litter Box Trained: yes Temperament: Gentle, sensitive, affectionate, cautious in new situations Energy Level: Low Adoption Fee: $150 +tax To adopt, go to: www.mendingspirits.org/apply-to-adopt.html From the Foster Family: Sam is a sweet, gentle soul with a quiet heart. After losing his beloved person, he's taking things one day at a time and learning to trust again. He may be shy at first, but with patience, soft scratches, and a good brushing, his affectionate personality begins to shine. Sam is looking for a calm home where he can feel safe, loved, and cherished once more. From Sam: My world suddenly changed when my person passed away. Since then, this nice lady has given me a safe place where I can grieve, decompress, and learn to trust new people again. I've met the other cats that live here. They seem okay. Well... except for the orange one. He gets a little cranky with the lady sometimes. There is also a really big cat here. At least I think it's a cat. It smells me a lot, but I don't mind it. I enjoy having cozy places to curl up and sleep. The lady has given me lots of options, but my favorite spot is in the cat tower where I can keep an eye on everything while staying comfortable. There are plenty of toys around, although I haven't felt much like playing yet. Maybe someday. I prefer scratches over pets. My favorite spot is right above my tail. If you bring out a brush, you've pretty much won me over. I could spend hours stretched out getting brushed. T he lady tried putting me on her lap once. I quickly informed her that wasn't part of my current life plan. I hopped right down, but I stayed nearby so she could keep brushing me. I think I would do best in a quieter home. Sudden movements and lots of activity can still startle me. I'm looking for someone who will let me adjust at my own pace and understand that trust takes time. The lady says I have my days and nights mixed up. I'm not sure what she means. I simply prefer working the night shift. While she and the really big cat sleep, I patrol my room and make sure everything stays exactly where it belongs. If you're patient, gentle, and willing to let me be myself, I think we might become very good friends.
