My story

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

Nightingale is a dinosaur of a kitty! She has round, white markings on her back feet that look like little dino toes. She’s a Cretaceous age of 8 years old, and instead of meows she makes trilling sounds. Her eyes change from gold to green depending on the light, and she loves high places. She’ll often stretch her neck to say hi to her foster mom. Her favorite method of communication is head butts. Unlike an ancient reptile though, her black fur is kitten soft. She also has a bit of bare “dinosaur skin” on her belly since she had a stressful start to life, but she’s a healthy, cuddly girl. Her foster mom wouldn’t trade her for any sauropod, even a long necked brontosaurus! 🦕 She’ll be a perfect match for someone looking for a playful, older kitty to curl up on the nearest blanket in their home. She‘a got a lot of love to give and gets along with adults and other cats. Nightingale was born in 2015.
