About Tortie

Meet Tortie. Tortie was found at Kroger, which leaves her early history a bit of a mystery. She's naturally shy at first and will need some time to feel comfortable in her new surroundings. Once she trusts you, she’s a charming companion. One of her endearing habits is her cozy bedtime routine: she loves to snuggle in her bed, kneading the softest blankets while purring happily. Beneath that cautious exterior, Tortie is bursting with energy and curiosity. She loves to explore and enjoys sudden zoomies where she bounces around in sheer delight. She would thrive with a playful kitten companion, especially since she's already found one in Ms. Pea. Tortie is a true reminder that shy pets can turn into hilarious little characters once they feel safe and secure. Your new best friend awaits you in Chamblee, GA. What are you waiting for?
