Story
Cheddar is an independent, yet loving petite orange/ginger cat. She enjoys playing games with her foster Mom, since she is still a youngster and has plenty of energy to burn off. However, her personality is also similar to orange cats in that she is content to spend time alone resting or looking out the window. She was abandoned outdoors at a very young age before being rescued, and has nicely transitioned to life indoors. She prefers to interact with people at her own pace, and does not like to be overwhelmed with a lot of attention at one time. But once she feels safe, she easily cuddles up close to her foster Mom and other house guests on the couch or a favorite chair, and will stay there for hours. Cheddar requires a quiet home with no other adult cats or children. Fostered in Alexandria, VA. This is a cross post with Animal Allies. Text Patty at 703-402-3460 with questions.
