My personality

My story

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

This beautiful 7-year-old girl came to us after leaving an unsafe and abusive home, (literally abandoned in a contentions divorce), so she’s understandably shy and cautious. She’ll need a patient, gentle hand to help her feel safe and loved in her new surroundings.

She can be a little wary of men and new experiences at first, but once she trusts you, her sweet, affectionate personality truly shines. With people she bonds with, she loves to snuggle—sometimes even curling up under the covers for a cozy nap.

Right now, she hasn’t been comfortable around other cats or dogs, so a quiet, calm home would be best. She’s searching for a loving family willing to let her build confidence at her own pace. In return, she will offer unwavering affection and a truly special bond that’s worth every moment of patience and care.
