BEHAVIOR:
What my friends at ACC say about me:
* My history is a mystery and my friends here do not know much about me yet!
* I have lived with cats in my previous home.
* I have lived with dogs in my previous home.
* I have potential behavior challenges that staff will address with you when you meet me.
* I'm an independent kitty who likes to do my own thing.

* I'm sensitive and shy. I'll need extra help from you.
