HOWARD COUNTY, MD — Meet Patch's Adorable Adoptable Pet of the Week available from the Howard County Animal Control and Adoption Center. Caliope is a 4-month-old, female, brown and orange patch tabby. Caliope is seeking a very special person who will understand her. She will need someone who has lots of time to sit near her so she can grow accustomed to you. Caliope, or Callie for short, only feels safe when she is hidden in her covered kitty bed. Her instincts tell her to hide from people and from new sounds. Callie was found outside, hungry and trying to survive. Callie will need a very quiet, adult home with a bedroom where she can have a safe space of her own. She will need a cardboard box with a bed in it for her to have a safe hiding place. If you sit on the floor near her, talking calmly and quietly, this will give her time to get used to you. Just sit there petting her gently and you, too, will eventually get a little kitty lick from her, like one of the shelter volunteers did. Quiet and calm is the way to get her used to you. For more information about adopting Callie or any other animals currently at the center, call 410-313-2780 or visit the center's site on PetFinder or its Facebook page. The shelter currently is open by appointment only.
