My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi… I’m Sylvia
I’m a quiet girl with a soft heart and an even softer purr. The world can feel a little big and scary to me at first, so I might hide or watch you from a safe little corner while I figure things out. But please don’t mistake my shyness for not caring — I care very much. I just need a little time to feel brave.
Once I know I’m safe, I’ll show you my gentle side. I love calm spaces, soft blankets, and kind voices. I’m not the type to demand the spotlight — I’m more of a quiet companion who will sit nearby, blink at you slowly, and keep you company in my own sweet way.
I’ve lived with other cats before and done well, especially with respectful feline friends who understand that sometimes a girl just needs her space. With the right introduction, I could happily share my home again.
What I’m really looking for is someone patient. Someone who understands that trust is a gift — and when I give you mine, it will be something very special.
If you have a peaceful home and a gentle heart, I think we might be perfect for each other.
Love, Sylvia
