Because of the way Shamo appeared when she initially came at a Japanese rescue, employees felt she was shy and unpleasant. They quickly understood, however, that all Shamo wants is to be held and loved — but her surly appearance has so far deterred potential adopters.
Shamo is one of those cats who always has a gloomy expression on his face. Whether she’s experimenting with a new gadget…
… cuddling up in a cozy bed …
Shamo is constantly irritated, whether she’s spending out with someone she likes or not.
Shamo is actually a gentle and loving creature that adores humans and attention. Her sour faces are deceiving, and many families have assumed she wouldn’t make a decent family pet because of them.
Shamo is a senior cat, which makes finding a home much more difficult. Shamo was fortunate to secure a foster home months after coming to the rescue, but she is still waiting for the right forever family who would get past her gloomy appearance and provide her with the love she deserves.
Everyone at the rescue is anxious to find Shamo the ideal home, so they set up a Twitter account for her to share her foster home adventures and her charming, cheeky attitude.
