About Me
It’s hard to understand why anyone would abandon animals. But that’s what happened to us. I’m Acorn, and I’m here with my best friend Sprocket. We were left behind in Weiser until someone brought us to Simply Cats to find a better life.
We’ve been waiting for our forever home since January. That’s quite a while, but you can probably imagine how scary everything felt when we first arrived. We were absolutely terrified and would cower or bolt whenever someone entered our room.
Thankfully, the amazing enrichment volunteers here knew just what to do. With patience, calm voices, and gentle hands, they helped us build confidence. You wouldn’t recognize us now compared to those frightened cats who came in all those months ago. Our transformations have been nothing short of remarkable.
I’m the more outgoing half of our duo, and I help Sprocket feel safe. We both love playtime, pets and treats. While we still ask that you go slow with us at first, we’ve learned that people can be kind and that love feels really good.
Shy cats like us are often overlooked, but we’re worth the wait. There’s nothing quite like earning the trust of a cat who’s had to be brave. It’s a bond built on patience, kindness and understanding. We’re ready for a calm home where we can keep growing, surrounded by people who will celebrate every small victory.
If you open your heart to us, we’ll show you just how special it is when trust turns into love.
Meet my bonded friend!
