My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Location: Maple Grove MN
My name is Genevieve, and I am a cat; but I've tricked everyone into thinking that I'm a dog. It took me a while to master the skills, but I'm so brilliant that I've figured out how to make everyone think I'm a dog. I've learned how to walk on a leash, and I really love going on walks now. I've also learned how to bark to express all of my opinions. But since I am a cat, you can trust that I have many opinions to tell the world about.
My uncle is a goat, so I enjoy tearing up and eating soft toys. And my aunt is a racoon, so I've learned how to watch people VERY carefully at a distance to decide if I can trust them. It'll take me a little while to learn how to trust my future new family, but since my foster family figured out how to earn my love, I know my forever family can figure it out too. I am wicked smart like any cat, so I know where to do my business, and I love training and playing with humans. Since I live with other dogs, I have also learned from them how to sleep in a kennel at night and when my foster family is away.
My absolute favorite thing to do is to play with dogs. I depend on dogs to guide me on what to do, since I'm not so sure about new humans. So my new family must have another dog in the home for me to learn from. As much as I love playing with dogs, little kids make me very nervous. Their fast movements can be scary, so it's best I'm in a home with kids 8+ years old or kids that demonstrate proper dog etiquette. Since I am a cat, I prioritize my personal boundaries, and I need a family who will let me decide when I want to interact with people. But once I know I can trust you (just like the 2 kids in my foster home today), I will give you some serious side eye while also demanding your neck scratches and belly rubs and treats, just like any self-respecting cat.
If you are looking for the world's most interesting cat, I am your girl! (PS: don't tell my foster family; they really believe I'm a dog. )
