My story

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

Meet Nyla, the sweetest, silliest moo cow kitty!

Nyla is a gorgeous three year old young lady who is looking for a quiet, cat savvy home, ideally with another playful cat friend.

Nyla is a bit cautious and nervous about new things so an adopter will need to plan to give her time to settle in and get comfy at her own pace. Once she is comfortable though, Nyla's personality shines! Nyla is playful, curious, sweet, and hilarious. She's truly a goofy kitty who takes playtime seriously but also loves to nap in your lap.

Nyla has recently taken to playing with her foster parent's resident cat. She particularly loves to race up and down the stairs with him and play hide and seek. It's ADORABLE! She doesn't mind the senior dog in the home and we suspect would do fine living with a dog that respects her space.

Nyla currently takes a medication called gabapentin twice daily in her food (she prefers her gabapentin mixed into a tasty churu cat treat) to help manage stress. Nyla is tested negative for FIV/FELV, up to date on vaccines, and already spayed.
