About India

India is a petite black cat known for her quiet voice and soft, gentle spirit. She’s easy to spot—she often sports one signature white whisker and likes her blue and brown collar. Life outside shaped her into a resilient mama, raising litters of kittens and even caring for orphans. These days, she’s settled into sanctuary life, where patience has opened her up to the joys of a gentle touch. Over time, India’s wariness toward people faded, replaced by a quiet meow and a craving for affection. She still prefers to initiate contact, with a preference for calm company and plenty of lickable treats. A move to a new home will bring out India’s shy side—she’ll likely hide until she’s sure she’s safe. But with calm voices and patience (plus food), she warms up steadily. India’s recent dental procedure hasn’t slowed her down when it comes to mealtime. She’s calm, prefers tranquil surroundings, and truly lights up with feline friends nearby. Her ideal home is a peaceful, indoor-only setting with folks who understand her slow-blooming trust. India has excellent litter box habits and is fully vetted: spayed, microchipped, up-to-date on vaccines, parasite-free, FIV/FeLV negative, and flea/tick treated. She must remain indoors, and declawing is off the table. If a quiet, sweet cat who treasures friendship with other cats sounds like your match, India is waiting for you in Faribault, MN.
