My story

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

Meet Roxanne!

Joined us in: October 2025

About Roxanne:
• A gentle, independent girl who enjoys chin rubs and cozy time in her cat bed
• Loves brushing against legs to say hello and happily accepts creamy treats
• Calm and observant, with a sweet way of seeking affection on her own terms
• Quietly social — she enjoys being near her people even when not asking for attention

Her perfect match:
• A peaceful, quiet home where she can settle in at her own pace
• Patient adopters who appreciate a cat with clear boundaries and gentle communication
• May benefit from a confident, easygoing feline companion to help boost her confidence

Some extra facts about Roxanne:
• Typically takes about 4–6 weeks to feel fully comfortable in a new environment
• Communicates when she’d like affection by sniffing or rubbing against you
• Prefers shorter petting sessions and is learning to clearly express her limits
• While not a traditional lap cat, she thrives with respectful companionship and shared space

In short:
Roxanne is a calm, thoughtful companion who enjoys connection without needing constant hands-on affection. With patience, understanding, and a quiet home, she’ll blossom into a lovely presence — content to coexist peacefully while sharing moments of gentle affection on her own terms.
