Meet Yukon Gold Potato
This is such a big name for such a small kitty! Yukon Gold Potato came into care with her much bigger pal Yeti, and while she started out as a scared little spud, she has been slowly showing signs of sprouting. She enjoys the company of other cats, and when introduced to her foster family’s resident cat, was very curious and came to say ‘hello’ right away. She and Yeti are still quite shy, but learning confidence quickly. She is quite bonded to Yeti.
Little Potato, as her foster family call her, was the first to show signs of being curious about pets. While she still hasn’t quite figured out what to do while being pet (there is a lot of flopping to her side and trying to play with hands), she is very happy to receive them. She turns into a pet and purr machine during her scheduled breakfast and dinner time - wet food especially, is a highlight for this little lady. She also gets pretty excited for meat tube treats, but hasn’t quite got the knack yet - she gets so busy purring and rubbing on hands or foster friend Yeti that she will somehow end up with purée on her forehead.
What is sure to draw her out is playtime. She loves to chase thrown treats, hunt down wand toys, and especially, chase anything under a blanket or towel. She is very playful and kittenish, and while her personality is still evolving, she seems to be curious, sweet, and friendly. She would do well in a quiet home with another friendly and confident cat, or one with someone to play with her patiently. Take this new Potato home today, and see what she grows up into!
