Pepper is a 4-year old SPAYEDshort haired tabby cat. She likes to have access to a backyard. She enjoys looking at birds. We have had her since she was 6-weeks old. She has a sister, ginger, that is also up for adoption. But she does NOT do well with other cats. If you have other cats in the home please do not consider adopting pepper as she WILL have behavioral issues. She is ok with dogs and children. She actually prefers our children over my husband and I.

Story
Olive is 2 1/2 years old and very sweet. She is independent and prefers to be the only animal in the house, but does work well with at maximum 1 other cat. She doesn’t bite, and is very playful. If you are watching a TV show on the couch and you have a blanket on you, she will come sit on you until your legs fall asleep. She is a very loving animal, and deserves an amazing home with someone who will take the absolute best care of her. She does have issues with marking if she can smell other cats or is unhappy with her environment, but this behavior usually stops after using an enzyme cleaner and when she adjusts to her new environment.
