About Anya

Anya, a young gray tabby with a short coat, has quickly charmed her foster family with her lively spirit and talkative nature. Found abandoned and expecting her second litter before even reaching two, she was spared another round of kittens and is now spayed. Though shy during a first meeting, she warms up fast and soon follows you around the house, asking for pets and attention with cheerful chatter. Watching her leap onto tables or bounce across couches never gets old—she plays with a kind of silly energy that brings laughs to everyone nearby. Anya gets along well with other cats, particularly playful, gentle males, and she would thrive in a home with a friendly brother cat. She can be reserved initially but craves a loving, patient family who will give her the chance she deserves. Shy cats like Anya make the most devoted companions.
