My story

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

Meet Sweetie, a 12-year-old delight who truly lives up to her name! This affectionate, gentle girl has a knack for comforting her humans—if you’re ever having a nightmare, she’ll curl up beside you and purr you back to sleep.

Sweetie is incredibly affectionate once she’s had time to settle in. She may be cautious with new people and places at first, often taking a few days to feel safe enough to come out of hiding. But with a soft voice and a little patience, her sweet, social nature shines through. Since adjusting to her foster home, she’s become a total snuggle bug who loves curling up on your chest and purring for pets.

She thrives in a home where she can be the only cat, as other cats have caused her stress in the past. Sweetie was surrendered for litter box issues, but since receiving medical care and living in a cat-free foster home, she’s been using her litter box reliably. She’s currently coexisting peacefully with the foster’s older dog and may do well with another calm dog after a slow introduction.

Sweetie’s favorite hobbies include basking in sunny spots, napping on cozy furniture, and playing with her beloved string toy. She hasn't lived with children before, but she may be a good fit for a quiet home with respectful, older kids—an intro is recommended.

P.S. Sweetie’s adoption fee has been mostly covered by a kindhearted friend—there’s just a small fee to help with her dental care. Think of it as her smile fund!
