Shasta ADOPTED!

We have a 6-8 month old, male, altered last week. "Shasta" is unique in coloring…pure, snow white for the majority of his body; dark orange stripes and rings on his blondish colored tail, and then patches of dark orange/light orange checkers and stripes. He is very strong, nice body, very muscular. He is a little shy, but friendly, he actually will start crying if he does not know where everyone is or can’t find anyone. He does not hiss, bite, or scratch, unless provoked. He likes to be in the same room as everyone else, but he is not always into anyone touching him. I’ve been working with him to socialize him. He is doing pretty good. I can pick him up and hold him/pet him…he’s not thrilled, but will stay with me for 15-30 minutes. Yesterday he allowed me to pet him where he was without me having to make a big ordeal out of it. He was bolting every time anyone came even close to him, but now he stays and just watches to see what’s going to happen. He plays with the other cats and has adjusted to them perfectly. I think in a week or so, he’ll be able to allow people to pet him without having to “corner” him or such other things. He is a good looking guy, with a nice personality. We would like to see him get adopted too-he deserves a nice family. He should be ready for adoption by the end of November. If you know of anyone, send them our way!
