My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

She was abandoned in our backyard in June 2020 and has been an indoor cat since then. The vet gave her a DOB of 5/17/2019. When she was still quite young (4-12 weeks old), she would cuddle and fall asleep on our chest, laps or anywhere we want to put her. We all fell in love with her. However, eventually we knew we would have to find a better home since most of my family is allergic to cats and my nephew who wanted to keep her is now unable due to how our lives changed with Covid.

Despite the fact that she has known us for most of her life, as she got older, she now doesn’t like to be carried or held and she’s seems very shy especially with new people. When guests come, she hides and only comes out after they leave.

Over the last 4 months, she follows me everywhere and will sit beside me whenever I watch tv or working at my desk. She talks a lot and comes when I call her by name. She's very sweet and playful. But needs a very patient and loving new home.
