I'm Jonas

—a very shy and sensitive cat looking for a quiet and loving home.

This is me:

I come from an estate and am a timid and easily frightened cat who prefers to hide when he feels insecure. Moving from a familiar environment is still difficult for me. I especially like to burrow under blankets. There I feel safe and can calmly wait and see what happens around me.

I don't let anyone pet me yet at the shelter—my fear is still too great. Therefore, it's important that my future family doesn't pressure me and respects my need to keep my distance. Perhaps I'll become braver and more trusting with time. However, no one can promise that I'll ever become a real cuddly cat. Therefore, I wish for people who accept me as I am and can also celebrate small improvements.

I have arthritis in both elbows and receive pain medication for it; I also have a slight heart murmur.

I wish for… a loving home with patient and understanding people. My new home should be as quiet as possible, because loud noises and a lot of commotion quickly unsettle me. There should be no children in the household. I used to live with other cats, but I would probably be happy as the only cat. I also need ramps and steps in my new home so I can easily reach my favorite spots and move around safely—because I'm not a kitten anymore.

Would you like to meet me? Perhaps I can gradually become braver with you and discover how wonderful it is to feel completely safe and secure. Note: Due to construction work, there are currently space limitations in the cat adoption area – including for meeting the cats. Furthermore, due to the altered living conditions of these animals, we sometimes have less information available about them. The introduction and adoption process may therefore be somewhat more difficult at the moment; visits to this animal are only possible by appointment. Thank you for your understanding.
