Birdie is a scruffy-looking senior with a calm presence and a gentle heart. After a rough stretch outdoors, she's now searching for a peaceful home where lounging on the couch is a daily affair. Birdie is 11 years old, prefers quiet over chaos, and has a sweet, shy demeanor that blossoms with patience. She'll slowly warm up, transitioning from keeping her distance to claiming your lap and asking for head scratches. Birdie enjoys companionship but values her alone time, choosing when to follow you or retreat for a solo nap. She has a few funny habits, like pretending to go for dinner but circling back for more pets, and she prefers calm play with wand toys. Loud noises send her off to a safe spot, but otherwise, she adapts well. Birdie manages diabetes with daily medication mixed into her food and eats a special diet to keep her condition in check. She also has some neuropathy, giving her a unique wobbly walk, but she can still climb onto the couch and follow her people. She'll thrive in a quiet household with someone who can stick to her routine and appreciates laid-back, affectionate company. Birdie is spayed, vaccinated, and house trained, and her adoption fee is sponsored. Ready to share your downtime with a mellow lap cat? What are you waiting for? Apply today!
