Story
Kayce is a loving and cuddly senior (10 years) cat we adopted from the shelter last year. Shes an affectionate old girl who thrives on companionship and loves being around people. Kayce enjoys spending her time in a central spot in the house, where she can keep an eye on everyone and soak up all the pets and attention she can get. Unfortunately, we've realized that Kayce isn't compatible with a multi-cat household. While she's made friends with one of our cats, she prefers to keep her distance from the others and often retreats to her room for peace. Recently, the other cats have started chasing her, and we feel it's best for her to find a home where she can be the only cat or live with just one other feline companion. Kayce is incredibly sweet and deserves a loving home where she can roam freely without stress or fear. Despite her age, she's agile and loves climbing to high places, showing off her adventurous spirit. She'll make a wonderful companion for someone looking for
