Description:
Meet Pico De Gato—affectionately known as Smoosh—a one-of-a-kind cat with a personality as charming as her name. Independent yet affectionate, playful yet serene, she’s the perfect companion for anyone who appreciates a cat with a mind of her own. She loves to perch by the window, watching birds and rabbits with quiet fascination, but she’s just as happy curling up in a warm lap for snuggles. Her feisty yet endearing nature never fails to bring laughter, and while she may be a bit shy at first, she warms up quickly with a little patience. Though loud noises can startle her, she’s proven to be resilient, having lived with young children for years. She’s also had brief experience with a dog, tolerating the arrangement with grace, and with time, she may learn to coexist with other pets. Fully litter-box trained and accustomed to indoor life—with occasional catio adventures—Smoosh is looking for a loving home where she can share her unique blend of independence, humor, and affection. If you're looking for a loyal, playful, and cuddly feline companion with a touch of sass, Pico De Gato is ready to win your heart!
