My story

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

*** Katy is in a foster home ***

White w/black patches Turkish Van mix, long hair, spayed female, born approx. 10/1/22, #18044

Cats: likes--feline friends suggested!
Dogs: unknown
Children: adults only

Along with the rest of her litter, Katy was rescued from the streets as a young kitten. The family made their way to The Rescue House, and after a little TLC in foster care, they began to flourish. With all of her siblings adopted, the time now has come for Katy to find her forever home too!

On most days, you can find Katy embracing the true San Diego spirit by soaking up the sun in her favorite spot by the window. Naptime is a must for this fluffy beauty, especially after an afternoon of games and frolicking with her foster friends. Katy loves mealtimes and is vocal about making sure you know when it is time to eat! Katy's other favorite pastimes playing with interactive toys. While she likes to wrestle, cuddle, and frolic with kitten friends, she also is able to be independent and self-entertain. Adopting Katy isn't just for anyone. She is going to need a very special person who understands that she is exceptionally timid and reserved. Katy likes to explore gingerly at her pace and retreat back to her safe space (under a bed) when she feels overwhelmed or afraid. If you pick her up, her whole body tightens; however, she slowly will become less tense as you pet her. When in an environment where she is comfortable, like atop a cat tree, she will accept your caress and purr away in delight! Katy is soft and has wonderfully luxurious fur like a bunny rabbit, so petting her is a treat for you both!

Katy is sociable with other cats and makes feline friends easily. She hasn't met dogs or young children yet, so we aren't sure of her feelings about them. Given that she is bashful, we believe a tranquil, quiet adult-only home would suit her best.

Girls just want to have fun, and this gal is simply looking for the right place to host her parties-she loves a good romp with a wand toy! Do you have room in your heart and home for Katy?
