Iris
Iris is a young, delicate and very gentle kitten, with the air of a true young lady. She is quiet and calm; she prefers to relax in her favourite spots and sometimes chooses a higher vantage point from which she can observe everything going on around her. She enjoys comfort and loves to knead the blankets with her paws, especially when she feels at ease.
She is an affectionate cat who enjoys human company, but has her own pace when it comes to being cuddled. She doesn’t like being rushed, so she needs a patient family who will respect her space and allow her to build trust over time.
Although she sometimes seems lazy and tired, Iris can also have playful moments. She’s been drawn to toys with strings, and when she wants to sharpen her claws on soft surfaces, she can easily be redirected to a suitable scratching post.
Iris is also a caring mum who looks after her kittens with great patience, even though motherhood sometimes seems to wear her out. She has a healthy appetite and isn’t shy about trying the other cats’ food, especially if she finds something interesting in their bowls. Over time, she has started to put on weight and is looking noticeably better.
When around other cats, Iris knows how to set her boundaries. She may become defensive if she feels her space is being invaded, but she makes her boundaries clear and needs to be introduced gradually and to be closely supervised whilst living with others.
Iris is looking for a responsible family who can provide her with a peaceful home, good-quality food, a clean litter tray and the veterinary care she needs. We are looking for people who will respect her sensitive nature, continue her eye care as recommended by the vet, and help her enjoy a peaceful, safe life filled with lots of love.
