Story
Champagne hasn’t had the easiest start in life. When she arrived in our care from a neglectful situation in August 2025, she was severely matted, dangerously underweight, and so weak we weren’t sure she would survive. At only 4.1 pounds, she was truly skin and bones. Thanks to months of intensive veterinary care, including frequent bloodwork, multiple rounds of B12 injections, and endless TLC in her foster home, Champagne has made an incredible comeback.
Now weighing a petite but steady 5.3 pounds, she’s a completely different cat. The frail, lethargic kitty we first met has blossomed into a playful, energetic, and delightfully opinionated little lady.
Personality & Daily Life
Champagne is what we like to call a “proximity cat.” She wants to be near her people and will happily curl up near you on the couch (bonus points if there’s a soft blanket), but she’s not a traditional lap cat or “cuddle bug”. She has strong preferences and isn’t shy about expressing them.
Affection, Her Way: Champagne enjoys attention on her own terms. Belly rubs are a firm no, and if boundaries are crossed, she will make her feelings known.
Trust Takes Time: Because of her history, she is wary of being handled. Wiping her eyes, brushing her coat, or cleaning her ears requires a patient, confident hand. Once she trusts you, she "tolerates" these things, but you have to earn that privilege.
Playtime Queen: Laser pointers and spring toys are her absolute favorites. You’ll often find her perched at the highest level of the cat tower, where she can keep an eye on the world.
Her Ideal Home
Champagne currently lives with an adult, and two kitty foster brothers (ages 3 and 6). She needs a home with at least one other feline friend. She loves to play tag, chasing her brothers and being chased back is the highlight of her day.
We’re searching for a very specific match to ensure Champagne continues to thrive:
Adults-only home: She does best in a calm, predictable environment without young children.
Experienced adopters: Prior Persian experience is strongly preferred. Her grooming needs and nuanced personality require someone who understands and appreciates the breed.
A Note on Adoption
Champagne has fought hard for her second chance. We have invested months of love and medical care into saving her life, and we are fiercely protective of her future.
Applications will be thoughtfully and carefully reviewed. We aren’t looking for just any home—we’re looking for the right one: a home that honors her boundaries, understands her needs, and cherishes her resilient, spicy spirit.
