Here's what the humans have to say about me:
BabyGirl just turned 5 on May 11th. As I understand it, her original owner moved frequently & BabyGirl became more stressed with each move. I agreed to foster her when her Mom moved again in late August 2016.
Essentially, BabyGirl is cautious, but brave. She's hesitant as she checks out sights & smells & surroundings, but she doesn't shy away from investigating things. She is continuing to relax and feel more secure. Typically, BabyGirl likes to be nearby, but she's not attached & clingy. She's recently begun seeking affection, coming by for back scratches, sitting next to me or on my lap. I frequently think she'd be perfect for someone who works from home. She's not all over me, in my face, messing with papers, or sprawled on the keyboard when I'm on the computer.
BabyGirl lives with and gets along with other cats. While mostly independent, she does enjoy chasing & playing with the others. Occasionally, I'll catch her sharing affection & grooming one of my male cats. Slow introductions are needed. BabyGirl growls to let others know if they're in her personal space and she will hiss & swipe if they don't respect the growl. She enjoys playing with wand toys, and chasing balls or stuffed mice. Catnip is always a hit!
BabyGirl is just slightly finicky about canned food, but dry food is always available so she eats what she wants. She prefers to eat her canned food while sitting under a chair; I guess she likes the privacy & comfort of a defined space. Her self-grooming and litterbox habits are perfect.
BabyGirl is current on vaccines, spay/neutered and Fiv/Felv tested. Adoption fee for BabyGirl is $100. If you are interested in adopting BabyGirl, please fill out an adoption application http://www.furgetusnotrescue.org/application.html
