Meet Ghost - A Serene Soul in Search of a Quiet Haven!
Step into the presence of Ghost, a graceful ten-year-old feline who embodies tranquility and serenity. Ghost is not just a cat; she's a refined lady seeking a peaceful retirement home where she can share her gentle spirit and love with a kind and patient family.
Personality:
Ghost, with her mature grace, tends to favor the art of lounging over energetic play. She is rarely playful, preferring to embrace the calm and laid-back lifestyle befitting her golden years. Despite occasional shyness and moments of fearfulness, Ghost's curiosity and gentle demeanor shine through.
Social Interaction:
This demure lady gets along with some cats and appreciates the company of dogs. Ghost, although initially shy and inclined to hide, warms up beautifully with time and patience. Her preference for tranquility makes her a suitable companion for a quiet household.
Play Preferences:
Ghost is not one for toys, but she finds solace and joy in observing the world from a cozy window perch. Her love for lounging is evident, and she treasures the simple pleasures of a serene environment.
Interaction with People:
Ghost may be new to being around people, but with slow introductions and gentle handling, she is making remarkable progress. This elegant lady absolutely adores being brushed and pampered, melting into bliss with every stroke. She's a cuddle enthusiast and, in particular, delights in having her belly scratched and rubbed.
Adoption Considerations:
Ghost's ideal home is one that embraces peace and tranquility, making her a perfect fit for a quiet household.
While she hasn't been exposed to children, Ghost's gentle nature suggests she would thrive in an environment with older, understanding family members.
Her love for being pampered and brushed makes her an ideal companion for those seeking a low-maintenance yet affectionate cat.
In Summary:
Ghost is not just a cat; she's a timeless soul seeking a serene haven in her golden years. If you're ready to offer a patient and loving home to a feline companion who appreciates the beauty of quiet moments, Ghost is waiting to grace your life with her gentle presence. Come meet Ghost, and let the tranquility begin!
Ghost has been spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and tested negative with the feline triple SNAP test.
