About Serafina

Serafina, or Fina for short, is a gentle soul who craves affection. She seeks out pets throughout the day and is happiest when curled up in a lap, kneading biscuits in quiet contentment. Whenever her foster mom enters the room, Serafina eagerly trots over, turns around, and sweetly asks for back scratches. Her favorite activities include batting her toy mouse and relaxing on her scratcher, though she’s equally content sitting at the window for hours, mesmerized by the world outside. Despite these moments of playfulness, Serafina remains shy and cautious; new people and sudden changes unsettle her. Because of this, she needs a calm, adults-only home where she can be the only cat, giving her the time and space she needs to feel safe and begin to flourish. Patience is key—she will thrive with someone who understands that trust can’t be rushed but is deeply rewarding when earned. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
