My personality

My story

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

Gelato is a super sweet, senior orange tabby that is between 7 and 8 years old. She may be a bit older and missing a few teeth, but that doesn’t stop her from being the friendliest cat you’ll ever meet! She’s a gentle soul who is young at heart and loves cuddles and affection. She has a big heart and an even bigger love for people.

Gelato enjoys lounging in cozy spots and is content with having her head scratched and back stroked. She gets along well with humans and has a calm, easygoing personality that makes her the perfect companion. Although she requires some extra care, her warmth and loving nature make her a joy to be around.

She would more than likely share space with a submissive male cat, she would do best in a pet-free home where she can bask in all of her adopter's affections. Being a senior kitty, the ideal home would be a quiet one with a retired person/couple or someone who works from home to keep her company.

If you’re looking for a laid-back, loving kitty to brighten your days, Gelato could be the perfect fit. She’s ready to bring love and joy to her forever home!
