Rescue Story:
I was abandoned at a rental house with my newborn baby. Sadly my baby passed away a few days while in care, fading kitten syndrome is a horrible thing but I am glad my baby didn't suffer. I am now ready to find my forever home now that I am spayed. I can't wait to find my true forever home.
Date of Birth: June 7, 2023 (est)
Energy Level: High

Good with Dogs? Unknown
Never met one, so not sure.
Good with Cats? Very specific cat(s) only
I don't make a good first impression, but with slow proper introductions I am fine with big cats.
Good with Kids? Maybe
Older kids only who will respect my space or no kids.
Critter Twitter:
I am one brave, confident girl who would be an excellent adventure cat. I am friendly to all I meet but just make sure that they understand my cues and only pet the back of my head. I respond to being called, probably better than most dogs! I love human attention and being petted. But I also really love my playtime. I love spring toys, and I love wand toys. Be sure to set some time aside to play with me to burn off my energy; I am still a young cat after all. I have started to really become quite affectionate, and I love to sleep with you every night. doratheexlpora #adventurecat
About my Behaviour:
Ok, folks, I have some requests.
1. I hate being brushed, so a soft brush like a Kong brush may be fine. Treat bribes are appreciated.
2. I can get overstimulated when being petted, so watch my cues; if my tail is swishing or my ears are to the side, stop petting. Also, only pet the back of my head or back; no belly or sides. As I get older I may get less overstimulated, and playing me out frequently a day will help as well.
3. I would be thrilled to be the only cat. I am ok with very cat-friendly cats with slow, proper introductions, however. Especially if I have lots of resources and get a lot of playtime.
How’s my Health?
I am fully vetted. I should have at least one meal of wet food a day (preferably two) to help with hydration. I actually love wet food! Free feeding is not recommended as I was abandoned and as such will overeat. But leaving a tiny bit out (if I am an only cat) while you are away at work is fine.
