We’re happy to help with tips and tricks! Currently Living at: Foster home in the DC area I am Looking For: My loving forever family! Hi! I'm Shaw, and I am a cute little kitten! I won’t ask for much- just some love, cuddles and lots of toys so I can run and play and be myself. Litter: Scully, Sullivan, Shaw, Sagan What my Foster Says About Me: Shaw is currently sporting a "cow-print" aesthetic, but don't let the farm-animal markings fool you—this kid is pure urban athlete. Shaw is a firm believer that the floor is lava. While he can be a little "people shy" at first (he’s currently in the "witness protection" phase of his socialization), his confidence is directly tied to his altitude. Shaw is what we call a "Slow-Burn Superstar." He might start the day hiding behind a curtain like a shy Victorian ghost, but once the jingle ball comes out, his inhibitions vanish. The Shy Guy: He’s still learning that human hands are for petting, not just for holding the "magic feather wand." The Play Hard Ethos: He doesn't just "play"; he conducts high-intensity interval training. You won't need a gym membership with Shaw around—just watching him do laps around your living room will get your heart rate up. The Ideal Home: Shaw is looking for a "training facility" (a.k.a. a home) with plenty of vertical space. Cat trees? Essential. Shelves? He’ll call them "viewing platforms." A patient human who doesn't mind a kitten who treats their legs like a climbing wall? Perfect. Disclaimer: Shaw is not responsible for any "accidental" gravity experiments in
