My story

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

 Hi, I’m Romaine (yes, like the lettuce—but way cuter). I’m almost one year old, and I’ve been working very hard on my growth! I used to be a little unsure of the world, but these days I’m feeling braver, more curious, and much more confident—especially with kind hoomans and my fellow foster cat friends. I love to run, play, and chase anything that moves. Feather toys? Wand toys? Absolutely yes. I’ve also perfected what my foster momma calls my “Halloween cat pose”—you know, the dramatic arched back with the big tailed personality. I’m silly, expressive, and always keeping things interesting. One of my favorite hobbies is bathroom supervision. I don’t know why bathrooms are so fascinating, but I take my role there very seriously. I’m also a big explorer and will happily follow you around the house just to see what you’re up to. At night, though? That’s when my soft side really comes out. I love cuddling close, making biscuits, and settling in with my favorite hooman. I’m affectionate, loyal, and I really enjoy being near my people once I know I’m safe. I’m looking for an adopter who is patient, attentive, and loving—someone who understands that trust is something we build together. I’ve already come such a long way, and with the right person, I know I’ll keep growing up into the confident, snuggly, curious girl I’m meant to be. If you’re looking for a cat who’s playful, affectionate, a little quirky, and deeply devoted once she bonds— I might just be your girl.

If you'd like to meet this cat or think this cat would be a good match for your family, please complete our adoption questionnaire at http://www.trentoncats.org/adoption-questionnaire/ and let your references know someone will be contacting them soon. All our cats are neutered, up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations, dewormed and flea-treated, tested for FIV/FeLV, and microchipped prior to adoption. Thanks for opting to adopt!
