Meet Minerva 🐾 — your future favorite sound
Minerva isn’t just a cat; she’s an experience. The moment you sit down, she’ll be nearby—quietly hopeful, gently affectionate, and ready to steal your heart. And when she’s happy? She lets out the sweetest, soft, rumbly purr that sounds just like a tiny raccoon. It’s the kind of sound that makes your shoulders drop and your day feel better instantly.
Minerva is a loving, gentle girl who thrives on calm companionship. She enjoys cozy naps, peaceful moments, and being close to her people without demanding constant attention. She’s the perfect balance of affectionate and independent—the kind of cat who makes a house feel like home.
She’s litter-box trained, well-mannered, gets along great with other cats, with slow introductions and so ready for a forever family of her own. All she’s missing is someone willing to choose her and give her the stability she deserves.
If you’re looking for a cat who will bring comfort, quiet joy, and the most charming little raccoon purr into your life, Minerva is waiting—patiently and hopefully—for you. 💛
