About Quirky

Quirky—also called Kiki—is the sort of cat who melts with a soft touch and rewards affection with her quiet charm. Despite spending a year at the rescue, she’s gone overlooked due to her shy nature. If you sit near her, she might roll over to invite gentle pets, or perk up for a treat. Laser toys bring out her playful side. Quirky has a close bond with her companion Chutney (the brown tabby you see in the photos); ideally, these two will be adopted together. Both girls thrive in a calm, patient environment. A quiet home with a cat-savvy person able to give them time and space will suit them best. Quirky gets along with other cats but does not do well with dogs. Ready to meet your new best friend?
