About Cattarina

Cattarina is a reserved but sweet tortoiseshell cat who prefers to observe before joining in. She was one of six kittens brought in from a remote area and has slowly adjusted to her new surroundings. Though initially shy, once she feels safe, Cattarina becomes a melting puddle in your arms and thoroughly enjoys being held. Food is a big motivator for her—she’ll appear out of nowhere the moment she hears the sound of a meal. She’s in great health and has completed all her vet checks. At around 10 months old, Cattarina is still young and curious, but her personality leans mellow rather than bold. She blossoms in peaceful environments and would do best somewhere calm without too much commotion. Cattarina gets along with other cats and dogs, but she’ll appreciate a quiet routine above all.
