close‘Spring is the time of year when kittens abound — cute, fluffy and curious. They’re nearly irresistible, which creates a challenge for our adult cats at the county shelter.
“It’s especially hard for shy cats such as Josh.
“Josh is a gorgeous 2-year-old neutered male orange tabby who is likely to hide in a corner of his kennel when people approach. It’s his well-kept secret that Josh is sweetly curious and, with a little patience and soft words, you can entice Josh to come forward for a visit.
“Once won over — which doesn’t take long — Josh warms up quickly and enjoys making friends.
“However, with more kittens coming into the shelter each day, it’s likely Josh may have fewer visitors who are willing to take the time to pull him out of his shell.
“Josh has been overlooked at the shelter for two months and would love to find that patient, loving person or family to make him a part of their life.
“Josh has all his shots and is microchipped.”
— Animal shelter volunteer Ellen Perryess

SanLuisObispo.com is happy to provide a forum for reader interaction, discussion, feedback and reaction to our stories. However, we reserve the right to delete inappropriate comments or ban users who can't play nice. See our full terms of service here.
Here are some rules of the road:
- Keep your comments civil. Don't insult one another or the subjects of our articles. If you think a comment violates our guidelines click the "report abuse" button. Responding to the comment will only encourage bad behavior.
- Don't use profanities, vulgarities or hate speech. This is a general interest news site. Sometimes, there are children present. Don't say anything in a way you wouldn't want your own child to hear.
- Do not attack other users; focus your comments on issues, not individuals.
- Stay on topic. Only post comments relevant to the article at hand. If you want to discuss an issue with a specific user, click on his profile name and leave him a public message.
- Do not copy and paste outside material into the comment box.
- Don't repeat the same comment over and over. We heard you the first time.
- Do not use the commenting system for advertising. That's spam and it isn't allowed.
- Don't use all capital letters. That's akin to yelling and not appreciated by the audience.
You should also know that The Tribune does not screen comments before they are posted. You are more likely to see inappropriate comments before our staff does, so we ask that you click the "report abuse" button to submit those comments for moderator review.
