Shrimp is a beautiful little girl with pretty pink paws. She is shy and reserved, but when she feels really safe and comfortable, she will come out of her little shrimp shell, especially when Temptation treats are involved! While she doesn't enjoy being pet, Shrimp enjoys interacting with humans through play time with her feather wand and enjoys her alone time listening to “music for cats” and exploring her surroundings. She likes to feel safe, so having hidey areas will be important for her. And she really loves coming out to explore at night time.

 

For all of these reasons, we think Shrimp would be a great Working Cat and she would thrive living in a business like a shop or warehouse, or in a barn helping to control the rodent population! She came from a home with other cats so we could even place her with another cat. 

Age: 1-2 years old
How I came to PAWS: Abandoned in a home with 3 other cats. 
Animal ID#: A-49346

​I am not at the shelter. I am in foster care. Please email adoptions@phillypaws.org if you can offer Shrimp a safe and loving home where she can be as independent as she likes!_____________________________________
