Houdini is a full-grown torbie with the heart of a kitten and a personality that refuses to fade into the background. She’s quick to greet anyone who enters her room, making it clear she’s the main ambassador among her feline neighbors. Play is her biggest joy—she’s always up for a romp or a round of "Slappy Hands" with her feline pals. Don’t let her FeLV+ status scare you; Houdini is doing well and greets each day with curiosity and energy, scaling her cat tree and draping her striped legs over the ledge in a pose that has become legendary. Though she loves attention and enjoys being scooped up for a snuggle when the mood strikes, she’s not looking to be anyone’s lap cat. Houdini prefers to set the terms of affection: she’ll come for pets, then move along with charming independence. She gets along with other cats—especially those who know how to take her quirks in stride—but may be happiest as the only feline or with fellow FeLV+ companions. Volunteers say she’s the room’s star, with a streak of gentle mischief and enough charm to win over even the toughest skeptics. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
