Story
Spirit is a small, dainty and gentle cat. Her triangular face, large ears, slanted eyes, and aquiline nose give her an exotic look. She came into rescue at only six months old and was already halfway through a pregnancy. She was a diligent mom to three big, healthy kittens, who now have wonderful homes. Spirit isn’t a lap cat, but she does adore being petted and enjoys being carried around – she even likes having her belly stroked! She turned one year old in August and is still only 8 pounds and playful like a kitten. She loves chasing toys, climbing, using her scratch pad, and exploring the house to hunt for bugs. She plays very gently with the senior male cat in her foster home. She is intimidated by cats who play too rough, but she would love to be the companion of a senior cat or a smaller cat or kitten. She’s also completely comfortable with the large, gentle dog in her foster home. And because she enjoys the company of humans, and plays independently much of the time, she would probably be happy as an only cat. October 5, 2024, 2:13 pm

Story
Meet Smudge--she may be small, but she has a big personality! She is 7 years old, weighs about 9lbs, and has striking green eyes. Sheâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s a huge fan of string and ribbon and will chase them for hours if you have the time and energy to match her enthusiasm! Sheâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s an affectionate companion who adores people but prefers to rule over your household as the only feline overlord. Her shots are all up to date (even though she didnâ&#194&#128&#194&#153t appreciate getting them) and sheâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s spayed as well as microchipped. Smudge loves to be played with, but she is also quite the cuddle bug (on her terms) and will happily sit in a lap all day if you let her. Children old enough to know not to pull on tails or corner an animal are her favorite playmates, she matches well with their abundance of energy and likes to meow back in conversation to their babble and chatter. If you are someone who has company over frequently, she rather enjoys meeting new people. She has a fun little quirk where she bucks up to receive pets and it tends to be a hit with guests. Smudge is nervous and anxious around other cats and would prefer not to live with the feline kind. We are unsure how she would be in a house with dogs. She has been around small dogs in the past with no issue and simply avoided (though it did increase her anxiety) the larger dogs we briefly pet-sat. She is litterbox trained and will only do her business in the litterbox youâ&#194&#128&#194&#153ve designated, there have never been any accidents in the house. Before her anxiety around other cats manifested, she would play fetch with her toys, and bring them to us when she wanted to play. Ideally, her new home would only have one four-legged occupant to help ease her anxiety. She may not be a fan of other cats but the affection she displays for human companions is equal to any two cats that Iâ&#194&#128&#194&#153ve met! We personally would love to keep her but due to her ever-increasing anxiety about the other cats in our home we have to keep her separated from them and by extension us. This situation is not tenable as it leaves her depressed and lonely as she is very sociable when it comes to people and loves to interact with her human companions. To sum things up, Smudge is a cute, cuddly, and social (with humans) cat who would make an excellent addition to your household. Sheâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s great with older kids and loves to play so if youâ&#194&#128&#194&#153re looking for a house-trained cat with a big personality, sheâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s the four-legged friend youâ&#194&#128&#194&#153ve been waiting for!

Story
Born a southern belle in East TX, Arya II grew up learning how to hunt. She has caught many a lizard, mouse, and rat in her short 2.5 years. When her first owner passed away she was all alone with nowhere to go. However, someone above had other plans for her. She is currently being fostered by a family who plans to go overseas at the end of November. No one has taken her as their forever cat but they know the right person is waiting for her. She is full of life and love. She does well with kids but doesn't let them boss her around. She takes a while to warm up as she has had to make a lot of transitions in her life. She will follow you around like you have her on a leash, even when she sneaks outside. Many people will remark, 'I have never seen a cat follow someone around like that.' She has a remarkable pattern to her fur. Sometimes she appears brown and other times more gray. She loves to cuddle at night, on her own terms of course, and does not mind being picked up too much either. Arya is the coolest cat you will meet in TX (I have met a lot) and you would be blessed and never regret getting to be her forever owner. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * If you have a specific question about Arya II, then please email newdigs@dallaspetsalive.org.
