Story
Meet gorgeous blue-eyed Rina! She was an owner surrender to TMHPR. She is a Lilac Siamese with cute white boots on her paws. She may have some Birman in her genes!
This hefty beauty comes from a rough past, but she has turned into the ultimate diva. With abundant patience from foster mom, she has gone from shying away from attention to lying in the middle of the room meowing for it. She still prefers cheek rubs to anything else, but she won't come to you for it - she'll tell you she wants it, then walk a few steps away to see if you'll follow. Once you're in reach, she'll lean into you as long as you'll pet her, and she'll even try grabbing your hand if you stop before she's ready - but since she's declawed, it's the gentlest grab you'll ever get. She has committed to a weight loss diet and exercise plan to help alleviate her arthiritis, and every day she feels more energetic and playful.
She is not a fan of change - it took her three months with foster mom before she was willing to explore outside her initial room, and new people are a bit scary, but with regular exposure, she's grown to appreciate attention from the occasional visitor and to be curious about rooms foster mom doesn't want her in. She enjoys being groomed by her foster brother, which makes it easier for her to forgive him for pouncing on her. She tolerated a bit of construction in her home, but she's not happy with little humans making lots of noise and grabbing at her.
Rina will likely never be a lap cat, but she certainly enjoys companionship on her own terms. Given time to adjust, she will thrive in a low-key environment as an only cat or with another laid-back cat.Her estimated birth date is October 27, 2015. Cats adopted from TMHPR are indoor only.
