Twiggy

Description

READY FOR MY ‘HAPPILY EVER AFTER’: Approx. 8 years old  / Approx. 12 lbs.  Hello—I'm Twiggy! I had a home for several years after being adopted from Mostly Mutts. Unfortunately, when another kitty joined the family, we did not get along, so I am looking for a new family to love and be loved by. • OTHER CATS/DOGS/KIDS: My previous owner says I did NOT get along with the other kitty in the home, so perhaps I should be your only kitty. / My previous owner did not think I would be happy living with a dog. / Children in my new home may be nice, but best they are gentle and know how to handle a kitty, and—of course, let's meet! • PERSONALITY INFORMATION: I was pretty spicy when I first arrived at the shelter. Understandably, my world had turned upside down. I have been decompressing in a foster home for a couple of months, and my personality has really started to shine through. I'm a very playful and curious girl, and I take my job as your official greeter very seriously—I'll be waiting right by the door when you come home! If I feel like I haven't had enough playtime or attention, I'll definitely let you know with a few little cries! I'm a bit demure and shy, and when I first moved into my new home, I was pretty scared for the first week and a half. But once I realized I was safe, I blossomed into a very friendly girl. Now I happily chirp at my people and guests, come over for pets and maybe some playtime, and then retreat to my cat tower when I'm ready for some alone time. I'm independent, low-maintenance, and very easygoing once I'm comfortable and have a routine. I'm not destructive, and I've never damaged anyone's belongings—although I do occasionally like to scratch at the carpet. As long as you're patient and respectful of my space, I'll be a wonderful companion and a very easy cat to love. Oh, and I promise to keep you entertained with my playful antics and bug-hunting adventures! • SKILLS/LITTER TRAINED STATUS: I keep my area clean, as I am litter trained. My foster's advice is to put three litter boxes in various places where I spend time.      • LIKES/DISLIKES: I love spending quality time with you but remember—I prefer to ask for pets when I'm ready! Most of the time, I'm happy sitting beside you, just enjoying your company. I love being up high at the very top of my cat tower where I can survey my kingdom and watch everything happening outside the window. I'm also quite the little hunter, and if I catch a bug, I may proudly bring you the evidence as a special gift. I enjoy my wet food mixed with 1/4 tsp of MiraLAX and enough water to make a porridge. / Loud noises can still startle me. I'll usually hide for a little bit and then come right back out. Otherwise, I can't think of any dislikes, but I would not be happy if I did not get the love and attention all kitties deserve! • MEDICAL: I'm current on my annual vaccinations, micro-chipped, combo tested negative and spayed. I am on a special diet of 1/8 c. canned Hill's Prescription Diet w/d with 1/8 c. Hill's Prescription Diet w/d dry kibble twice a day to keep my tummy feeling good. I am looking for a great family to give me a loving home! My adoption fee is $175.00, and I'm located in Kennesaw, Ga.
