Charlotte-In foster-$99

My story

Are you looking for a single spoiled cat? A cat who will give you all the attention you oh so desire while also having the sassiness to tell you when she is all set? Meet the beautiful Charlotte! Charlotte has not lived with other cats before but based on her preferences she may prefer to keep it that way and be a single child in her next home. Charlotte has met large dogs before and has said "absolutely not!" so she asks if there are canine friends coming over she is set up in her own space where she does not have to be stressed and worry about being on patrol. Charlotte loves to play and follow her people around the house with breaks to lounge and window watch everything that is going on outside. Charlotte asks she does not go home with young children, but may do will in a home with older kids who will give her her respected time and space she needs. Charlotte would love to come home with you and start being your best friend or as she likes to put it- your boss! Sassy cats are usually confident, intelligent and active. They often don’t like to be held, or have places on their bodies that they prefer not to be touched. When handled or petted in ways they do not prefer, they are likely to swat, nip or bite. They will be happiest in adult only homes or those with older kids who understand cats that have rules and will leave them alone. If they are bored then they may get into trouble and often need extra playtime in order to be their best selves. Sassy cats will go home with a behavior plan that will need to be followed in order for EVERYONE in the home to be happy. Typically, sassy cats are not for first-time cat owners. Ready to Adopt?
