About Katie
Katie defies her age—at 8, she's still pure kitten in her heart. She craves closeness, wanting to be held and cuddled like a newborn, especially at bedtime. Katie insists on sleeping in bed with her person and won’t tolerate a closed door at night. She’s the kind of lap cat who prefers your company to endless petting, and she’ll let you know when she’s had enough. Katie greets you when you come home and is a great listener for your stories at the end of the day. Curious and confident, Katie enjoys interacting with people and has her own internal clock for play—usually in the morning and evening, though she’ll happily entertain herself with toys when the mood strikes. She’s best suited to a calm home without much noise or disruption, and she finds showers mysteriously appealing. Katie has lived with a dog before and would do well with a cat-savvy dog buddy, but she’s made it clear she’d prefer to be the only cat in the house. Her eyes may be unusual, but that just adds to her character; it’s her big heart and clever mind that make her stand out. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
