Rescued Kitten Named ‘Bashful’ Goes Above And Beyond Show His Extroverted Side

A litter of seven kittens came under the supervision Richmond Animal Care & Control (RACC) in October. Rescued when they were only a week or two old, they were given initial care, endearing names, and sent off to some of the many RACC foster families for a few weeks until they were big enough and old enough to be adopted.

Bashful got his name as he was part of a large litter of kittens, each branded as one of the dwarfs from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Although his name may imply that he isn't one to entertain too much company, that couldn't be further from the truth.

Bashful is quite an energetic kitten to say the least. That may be because he's barely ten weeks old and he has a lot of the world left to explore, or it could be that he sees any visitor or passerby as a climbing tree.

The tiny kitten may be small enough to fit in your hand, but that doesn't stop him from scaling the walls of his kennel and shirt sleeves of volunteers when he gets out. Although Bashful may clamber up and greet people face-to-face, he's also good at letting you know he's around with his constant meowing.

His vocalness isn't in distress, but he has just too much energy for the few toys in his kennel and wants a more personal touch to tire him out. He may have been more than a handful for his foster family, but he exudes oodles of love for anyone looking to cuddle.

Fortunately, bashful just hit the milestone of weighing two pounds and receiving his first two vaccinations. Therefore, he's ready to be adopted to a loving home immediately.
