More about me
***MY ADOPTION FEE HAS BEEN SPONSORED BY A GENEROUS DONOR***
Hi, my name is Prince Charming!
From: Community Cats of Reno
Description: Hey it's me, you're Prince Charming! Cozy beds, tasty treats and birds to watch out the window are the key to my happiness. Although my charm is strong, you'll have to earn it. I'm a sensitive guy who needs someone to respect my "no no-zones". Loud noises may send me scurrying at first, but with positive reinforcement and words of encouragement, I'll gain confidence to show my true personality! If you're a foodie, like your alone time and is someone who believes the quietest souls are often the greatest companions, come meet me and watch me steal your heart!
Dog Compatibility: History unknown, slow introductions recommended!
Cat Compatibility: I am FIV positive; and would do best as the only cat!
Child Compatibility: History unknown; let's meet to see if we're compatible!
Cat Care Basics
Please be patient while your cat adjusts to you and its new home. Please take your new cat directly home and try to keep it a calm environment while s/he investigates and acclimates. The transition may be somewhat stressful on your cat, and it’s best not to take it to a friend’s house, pet store, or other place. A pet who displays a happy, playful attitude at the Adoption Center may act wary and fearful in a new environment. It’s also important to realize that the stress of a new environment may cause a mild “cold” because immune systems are very sensitive to stress. Please follow our Adoption Counselor’s advice during your adoption process!
Consider getting pet insurance
In your adoption packet, there is information about signing up for a free trial for pet insurance. Please take advantage of this offer! It can help you save your cat’s life in the event of an unexpected accident. Additionally, you can research additional pet insurance options.

Visit a Local Vet
Please take your cat to a veterinarian within two weeks of adoption to create a trusted relationship for emergencies, annual checkups, vaccinations, and on-going care. You’ll also want to get it used to a carrier to make future vet visits less scary.
Vaccinate your cat
Your new cat leaves our Adoption Center up to date on vaccinations, but you’ll need to continue its vaccinations.
Cat Behavior
Watch for cues about how your cat is feeling. If your cat seems timid, move slowly and let your cat come to you. If your cat is full of energy and ready to play, get out the toys right away (laser pointers and wand toys are great!) But, please be cautious. Cats can be both scared and full of energy. Modify your actions to make your new cat feel welcome. The care you take with your own behavior in early days will pay off in the future as your cat learns that you are someone to trust and love.
