Why I need a new home

Infant, young children or pregnancy

My story

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

My husband and me got her in 2018 when I returned home from overseas and my husband was on the road a lot for work. When we got her we were strongly advised that she was a one pet household only. We tested this theory out once at a friends place who also had a cat and immediately saw the reason why :-). We started having children in 2020 and schedules became very busy. She has not gotten the attention she has deserved over the years and although she is used to our toddlers by now, I feel like she lives her life mostly in hiding from them when we are home. She does shed quite a bit but I believe its partly because we dont brush her regularly like we should, again due to busy schedules. We would really like her to go to a home where she can be free from toddlers and receive the TLC that she deserves.

If you adopt her, you will be given everything you need for her. Her pellet litter box, her travel bag, her bed, all her brushes,shampoos, toys, lasers, food/water bowls, food, etc!
