My story

Meet Calypso!If you look up the definition of "tortitude" (which, yes, applies to calicos as well), you would find a picture of Calypso. That's it. There would be no actual definition, just her picture, judging you and all of your life choices.Calypso is nine years old so she's earned the right to be judgmental and moody. If she wants to stare into your soul and make you feel bad about life choices you made a decade ago, then that's her prerogative. No one is going to tell her she can't and you shouldn't either. Trying to control Calypso will be like trying to control the weather...or like nailing jello to a tree.Calypso does not like her stuff touched. She is very particular about her belongings. Do NOT rearrange her space, you'll throw off her feng shui and then she'll have to start over and if SHE'S miserable then YOU'RE going to be miserable right along with her! If you move her stuff and she slaps you, well, you were warned.She isn't ALWAYS a terror, though. She can actually be pretty sweet. She loves scratches all down her back, loves having her head scratched, and is even a little bit of a social eater. She's just an older gal who is TOTALLY earned the right to be occasionally grumpy.Especially since she looks like that.Like, look at that face.Say no to that face.Bet you can't.(Calypso surprisingly does well with other cats but REALLY does not like dogs. Kids 12+ should be fine.)To apply, visit foreverpaws.com and click adopt to download our application. Once complete, you can email it to us at fpas1@foreverpaws.com.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Calypso, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
