Hello, I'm Little Girl, a 14-year-old dilute tortoiseshell with a heart full of love and a spirit that refuses to slow down, despite being in the early stages of kidney disease. I wear my years like a badge of honor, carrying a distinguished attitude and an enduring zest for life. My favorite pastime? Perching in high places where I can survey my kingdom and keep a watchful eye on my domain. After all, a queen must oversee her court!
While I do enjoy the company of other cats, I make it known that I prefer to reign as the queen of the roost. My hospice status doesn't dampen my spirits or my need for adventure; instead, it makes every gentle pat and quiet moment in a warm lap all the more precious. If you're looking for a regal companion who embodies grace and wisdom, I'm ready to spend my golden days surrounded by love and serene views from the top. Let's cherish every moment together!
