Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Willow has been spending time in a foster home and this is what her foster had to say:
`Willow is a confident and adventurous cat that never gets bored. She is fearless with new spaces and people, as she adapts very quickly to new things and making herself right at home in new environments. Willow is incredibly curious and adventurous and wants access to every room, nook and cranny. Closed doors are not her thing, as she needs to to discover whats behind it. Willow is a very affectionate cat and loves pets, rubbing against her favorite people and even giving kisses. She loves to keep you company as she will follow you around everywhere you go (to the kitchen, the closets and the bathroom). She thrives in companionship and being a sidekick. She loves sleeping and cuddling up right next to you and greets you with joy and affection to wake you in the morning. However, like many confident cats she can occasionally get overstimulated and is determined to set boundaries when she is, so gentle boundaries and reading her cues will help maintain happy and calm interactions. Willow is fully of energy and loves to play interactively. She especially loves wand toys, strings and laser toys. She would fit in perfectly with a playful home.`
If you are interested in adopting Willow, please contact her foster at g.karimu@yahoo.com to schedule a virtual meet and greet. It may take 24-48 hours for the foster to reply, so we thank you for your patience!
