My story

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

Meet Marie Purrie – The Shy Sweetheart with a Playful Twist!

Marie Purrie is a gentle little lady with a shy, soft-spoken personality—but don’t let that fool you! Once she feels safe, her playful side emerges, and she’s ready to chase toys, explore her world, and sneak in some extra cuddles when she’s in the mood.

She’s looking for a quiet, indoor-only home where she can feel safe and grow confident. She may be ok with mature kids who understand her boundaries and know to let her come to them. She might do well with other cats after a super slow introduction, but her feelings about dogs are still a mystery.

Marie Purrie will thrive in a home that provides:
Comfy spots for hiding and long naps
Tons of toys—catnip, interactive ones, and anything that sparks her curiosity
Cat trees & scratching posts for climbing and stretching
Window perches for birdwatching and daydreaming
Treats, wet food, and catnip to keep her happily motivated
A little extra patience with litter box training

With patience, love, and a few treats along the way, Marie Purrie will blossom into a playful, loving companion who fills your home with gentle purrs and quiet joy.
