About Herringbone

Herringbone runs her household with quiet authority and a healthy appreciation for personal space. She’s a lap cat when she feels like it and enjoys affection but never loses track of her boundaries—expect her to come to you when she’s ready, enjoy a few thoughtful pets, then slip off to find her own cozy perch. Any attempts to pick up Herringbone will be met with a polite refusal; she values her autonomy above all. In her foster home, she often supervises Fish Sauce, the kitten she “adopted” as her own, but she keeps her circle tight, preferring minimal company and little outside chaos. Other cats and dogs don’t particularly interest her. Herringbone is a blend of cuddly and aloof, the cat in charge of her domain, happy to melt into a blanket when the mood is just right. If you admire cats who know what they want and command respect on their terms, Herringbone would like a word—she just might not share her Fish Sauce. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
