Description
Looking for a cat to claim you? Well look no further than beautiful 7 year old Myrtle! Myrtle is a voluptuous girl with a stunning face and green eyes. She loves people, so much so that she wants her scent all over your face and she can't get close enough to you. Myrtle is intense with her love and is a people's cat. Myrtle lives for attention and will smother you with love, even giving you love bites. She is very chatty and is a cat you can have conversations with. She enjoys lounging on a window perch and sun bathing. If you make eye contact with her she will be right there to receive any love she can. She does not, however, like other cats. She is very territorial and gets fixated on them which makes her anxious. Even the sight of other cats stresses her out. She is also very picky with food. She has a sensitive stomach and can only eat really small amounts of wet food, gradually given over time. Otherwise, she eats dry food just fine but hasn't found one that she really loves yet. She will most likely have a better appetite when she is an only cat.Myrtle would thrive in a nice quiet home with no other cats where she can be the center of attention. She seems to do fine with the small resident dog. Myrtle would do best in a home with either no children, or older children that understand love-bites, so likely tweens and older would be the best fit. If you are a patient, experienced cat person looking for a solo cat companion, Myrtle would love to meet you!All of our cats come spayed or neutered, microchipped, and with age-appropriate vaccinations.
