Weighing just 5.5 pounds, she`s the perfect candidate for a working cat placement where she can put her natural instincts to good use. While she may occasionally accept a gentle pet from a trusted human, she`s happiest when she`s given the freedom to do her own thing and keep a watchful eye on her surroundings.Night Patrol is looking for a barn, stable, warehouse, brewery, or other safe outdoor working environment where she`ll have shelter, fresh food and water, and a caregiver who understands that not every cat wants to be a lap cat.
