My personality

Why I need a new home

Does not get along with other pet

My story

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


This is Taruka, she is an adult of unknown age, we got her after a friend's mom asked us to keep her temporarily while she moved, and then never took her back, she's very sweet, and a great cat, but we have 3 other cats and she does not get along with them, it has led to significant stress and some litterbox issues (entirely behavioral, almost entirely resolved by adding more litterboxes in safer places for her), my brother is going through significant mental health issues and is very frustrated by her issues from being so stressed, he gets very angry with her and has given a deadline to re-home her of mid February before he dumps her at a kill shelter. Not currently up to date on shots as I'm struggling financially but indoor only, I will help however I can to get her up to date. She would be a great cat in a household where she's the only cat, she seems fairly indifferent to dogs but it may depend on the individual dog.
