Wendy is a sweet older gal that needs a quiet home where she can relax and enjoy life. When Wendy was a kitten, an unfortunate accident injured her back and has now developed osteoarthritis- but she doesn't let it stop her! She is rather independent, but she wants affection when offered and likes to play with toys. Wendy is still handling sensitive on her back and rear legs, so she will be best in a home with older children (kids 10+) that can understand her need for space and gentle interactions. If there are any children in the home, we ask that they come in to meet with Wendy beforehand since she can be shy around strangers.
Wendy was brought in with her lovely sister Lilac and while they would like to go home together, they can be adopted separately. Lilac is a warm, outgoing presence that is a perfect balance with Wendy. While Wendy is independent and affectionate on her terms, Lilac demands pets and laps for her enjoyment. They both like to people watch and would love a sunny spot on the windowsill to relax and silently judge your neighbors. If you are looking for a pair of lovely senior cats, come in to meet Lilac and Wendy today!
