About Christy

Christy just celebrated her 7th birthday, and with it, she’s finally started to expand her circle of trusted humans. She’s spent over two years at the rescue and the shift in her attitude is real—these days she’ll approach for pets, and if she feels safe, she’ll even ask to be picked up, purring and kneading away like she’s landed in paradise. Christy is by no means a pushover. She’ll size people up and she has opinions about both humans and other cats, most of which she keeps pretty obvious. She swings between affectionate—demanding attention, flopping in your arms and drooling with happiness—and prickly, especially if her signals are ignored or she’s pushed before she’s ready. She’s pretty adept at letting you know when it’s time to back off. If she needs space, she’ll disappear until she’s cooled off. She’s not looking for a busy home or a crowd of pets fighting for attention. Christy is searching for someone patient who takes social cues seriously and appreciates a relationship earned over time. When she lets you in, you get her whole heart. Your new best friend is just one click away.
