At 12 years young, Kaiya is a confident, independent lady who knows exactly what she likes — and she isn’t afraid to make it known. This quirky girl marches to the beat of her own drum and is looking for a home that appreciates a cat with personality. Kaiya does not enjoy being approached for pets while she’s in her cage and can be quick to swat if her boundaries aren’t respected. But here’s the secret: when she’s out and about, living life on her terms, she’s a completely different girl. Kaiya prefers to make the first move — and when she decides you’re worthy of her affection, she’ll come right up and ask for pets herself. Because she’s easily startled by loud noises and busy environments, Kaiya needs a quiet, calm home where she can feel secure. She would also like to be your one and only pet, soaking up her space without having to share the spotlight. Once Kaiya trusts you, she has so much love to give — just in her own unique way. She enjoys her toys, has a playful streak that will surprise you, and brings a delightful dose of quirkiness wherever she goes. If you’re someone who understands that the best relationships take time and respect, Kaiya might just be your perfect match. Give her patience, give her space, and she’ll reward you with a bond that’s truly special. Fill out an application for her here: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/FMAS/Cat
