About Tia
Tia is a striking tortie who brings humor, sweetness, and an unforgettable purr to the room. Her favorite pastimes range from birdwatching at the window to frantically chasing laser dots—don’t underestimate her energy or speed just because she’s a senior. Tia takes real pleasure in being combed, petted, or fussed over, but she draws the line at being a lap cat. She prefers to keep close by without climbing directly onto you, showing her affection in her own, steady way. The adjustment to her foster home took time, but now she genuinely enjoys the company of her foster mom and prefers to be nearby almost constantly. Tia thrives in calm environments and needs to be the only pet; she won’t do well with other cats, dogs, or kids. Instead, she’ll make a steady, uncomplicated companion in a settled home where she can be adored on her own terms. Fun fact: Tia, born January 2, is a Capricorn—determined, observant, and independent. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
