Peep's story

　　Peep is a very shy young cat. She came into our facility because her owner passed away. Peep did well for her exam and tolerated all handling. She was very vocal throughout the exam and was too scared to interact with the examiner. Peep will do best in a calm, quiet home that will give her plenty of time to adjust (recommend 3-6 months). She has no history with other cats, dogs or children so please do a slow intro.

　　When Peep gets into her new home, she should start out in a single room (i.e. the bedroom, office) that still gets a lot of foot traffic but isn't as overwhelming as opening her up to the entire house. It is very important to visit with her multiple times a day (first starting by just talking to her and gradually working your way up to petting her and coaxing her out with treats). She will most likely hide at first, and should stay in the single room until she is actively coming out and seeking attention on her own. Once Peep is adjusted and seems relaxed in the single room, you can slowly introduce her to the rest of the house and the other pets.
