My name is Skittles!

She came from a broken, abusive home where a child broke her tail. She arrived at my house as a baby, skittish and scared. Now she's almost 15 years old. She's not a lap cat, and she used to be aggressive, but then I got her fixed, and now she's a whole different cat. She's loving, but it takes her a while to warm up. She's not good with kids, and normally will run and hide if anyone new comes into the house. She is very loving and looks for attention when she gets to know you, which doesn't take very long. She has some sort of PTSD! Other than that, I wouldn't say it's a good idea to pick her up, but she looks for love and will come to get pets from you. She definitely favors women over men. I have two teenage boys, and she loves them, so maybe not all men. But if any man walks into my house, she'll run and hide and won't come near them for a while. She has hyperthyroidism and I can’t afford it anymore!
