About Whiskers

Whiskers is a quiet, gentle presence who likes her personal space and moves through life with a calm, almost regal bearing. She isn’t fearful or jumpy, just particular about when and how she interacts—think observer, not cuddler. If you’re looking for a lap cat, Whiskers isn’t your girl, but she’s happy reclining at the end of your bed or basking in a sunlit window, always composed and peaceful. She’s lived alongside respectful children without drama and has coexisted with a big dog, often found curled up next to him. With other cats, she prefers to keep her distance but never stirs up trouble. A home with older, considerate children—or just adults—suits her best, and patient adopters may find her warming up over time, revealing more affection as she settles in. Her estimated birthday is January 5th, making her a Capricorn: independent and quietly steadfast. Whiskers is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, tested for FIV/FeLV and heartworm (all clear), and comes with ongoing post-adoption support. Lets make it official, apply to adopt!
