Meet Solar Flare
Hello, I’m Solar Flare.
I was eight months old when I was found in a trailer park colony in Prince Albert, trying my best to raise seven tiny newborns. In full honesty, I wasn’t sure about this whole “people” thing, but as time went on I adjusted as my four surviving kittens got adopted.
Now, a year later, I’ve come a long way. I’ve grown into a much friendlier, more confident girl. I still need a little patience when meeting someone new, and I’m definitely more cautious around men. I thrive in a home with another feline as I love having a buddy to follow around, and it helps me feel brave. Ear scratches / chin scratches are possibly the greatest invention of all time so when we meet, I may act a little reserved at first, but offer me your hand to sniff, and I’ll happily lower my head for gentle pets. Before long, I’m purring.
Now, about my quirks. Cardboard? Incredible. Blinds? Fascinating. Light reflections? Absolute A+.
If the sun catches a watch or a phone screen, I’ll chase the little dancing light all over the room while chattering at them like they’re birds I just can’t quite catch. I’m still learning that being picked up isn’t so bad, but I am making progress. I also love chatting and my little squeaky meows always make my foster mom smile.
I do have what my mom and doctors call a "chronic upper respiratory infection (URI)", which means I have sneezing fits from time to time, especially after I’ve been zooming around the house. It sounds much worse than it actually is, and it isn’t contagious or painful. In fact, I just need a few seconds to sneeze it out and I’m ready to get back to playing.
Even though my foster mom thinks that I’m an orange cat stuck in the wrong body, I can be quite smart. I know how to sit and stand ("touch") on command; currently, I’m practicing how to spin!
