Story
Personality:Gail "Gigi Marie" is a unique and captivating kitty companion who may start off a bit reserved, but once you earn her trust, she transforms into a playful and affectionate friend. Much like her namesake from the Aristocats movie, Gigi Marie embodies grace and charm. She appreciates a gentle and patient approach and will reward you with her endearing personality once she feels comfortable in her new home.Favorite Activities:Gail "Gigi Marie" enjoys playing with crumbled up pieces of paper, fuzzy mice and other kitties. She has a playful spirit that emerges when she feels secure and loved. Spend quality time engaging her in interactive play, and you'll witness her true Aristocat elegance.Ideal Home:Gail "Gigi Marie" would thrive in a calm and loving home where her adopters understand her initial shyness and are willing to give her the time and space she needs to acclimate. A cozy spot by the window where she can bask in the sunlight and watch the world go by would be perfect for this regal kitty. It takes about 2-3 weeks before she will acclimate. You will need small safe space in the beginning and then she will come out and rule the world. Health:Gail "Gigi Marie" was diagnosed with the beginning stage of stomatitis in February of 2024. Stomatitis seemed like it was a death wish for Gigi but we found a medication that we are treating her with from Europe and she is doing amazing. We are working to avoid pulling all of her teeth out and boosting her immune system. She is up-to-date on vaccinations, spayed, and has a clean bill of health. She is a self-groomer so not much is needed for her medium coat, but regular brushing is great and will help with bonding with her.
