About Birdie

Birdie came to us as a stray, found near a McDonald's in Walnutport. After we rescued her, she quickly began to show her gentle personality while in a kennel. Now integrated into a larger community of cats, she's still finding her footing among more space and activity. Quick movements can send her scurrying, but with a calm environment, she loves to be gently petted. At heart, Birdie is a sweet girl needing a bit of time to gain confidence. She's not aggressive; she simply needs reassurance that humans are gentle and safe. She enjoys the company of other cats, which could help her adjust, and she was comfortable around children aged 3 and 6 while kenneled. A patient family that can allow her the freedom to adapt at her own pace would be ideal. With time and love, Birdie will blossom into a wonderful companion. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
