My story

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

Meet Gertrude – Your New Cuddle-Queen!
Forever kitten energy | Cleopatra-style beauty | Petting enthusiast

Looking for a feline companion who will absolutely adore you? Meet Gertrude, a stunning female tabby with timeless elegance and an even bigger heart. With striking facial markings that look like Cleopatra herself did her eyeliner, Gertrude is as regal as she is sweet.

This little lady may be full-grown, but she has that eternal kitten spark—playful, curious, and impossibly endearing. But above all? Gertrude lives for pets. Head scritches, chin rubs, back massages—you name it, she’s here for it. She’ll follow you around like a fuzzy shadow, ready to turn every quiet moment into a snuggle session.

Gertrude is positive for FIV or feline immunodeficiency virus which weakens her immune system and makes her more prone to other diseases and infections. If she shows signs of sickness or infection, a proactive vet appointment sooner rather than later is key. Other than that, most indoor cats with FIV lead healthy normal lives. We are absolutely comfortable sending FIV+ cats to go home and live with other cats that are FIV- as long as the social structures of the home are stable.

If you’ve been dreaming of a cat who’s as affectionate as she is beautiful, Gertrude is your girl. She’s ready to reign as queen of your heart (and your lap).
