My story

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

Feisty is a very special girl and certainly lives up to her name! She has boundaries and she isn’t afraid to set them. She doesn’t always like to be pet or snuggled but she is a very nice cat once she’s comfortable with you. She takes twice daily gabapentin in her foster home to keep her calm. Feisty sometimes communicates with hisses, growls, and meows. We think that’s just how she expresses herself. It will take Feisty lots of time and patience to settle into her forever home, but once she does, she will be your best friend and will even sit on your lap!

Feisty loves treats and can be bribed with them. She likes to play independently with some of our cat toys but she really likes wand toys. She makes funny noises when she catches the toy on the end of the string and bites it. She likes our cat tree especially scratching the posts!

Feisty’s ideal home would have 1 or 2 cat-savvy adults and no other pets. She has met our cat but they hiss at each other. Ideally her adopter will be able to follow Feisty’s lead as she gets comfortable in her new home.

Please contact Feisty’s foster mom at ksilvagni@gmail.com if you are interested in adopting her and to set up a meet and greet.
