About Florence

Meet Florence, a charming torbie who lights up the room with her stubby tail that wags when she's happy. At about 5-6 years old, this affectionate lady is ready to leave her days of motherhood behind and embrace a life filled with comfort and care. Florence loves snuggling on laps, even if it means her limbs dangle awkwardly, and she has a keen taste for treats, showing a bit of sass if she doesn't like a flavor. After a tough few years spent outdoors, Florence has truly earned her place indoors, where she thrives. You'll notice her gentle head butts and leg weaves as she seeks affection. A calm and patient environment is ideal for her. She's not fond of other adult cats, so she would prefer to be the only feline in the home. While she can be shy with new people, she'll show her loving side with time and kindness. Florence would be the perfect companion for someone who understands her need for space and gradual trust-building, especially around children who respect her boundaries. She's ready to enjoy her well-deserved pampered life—could you be the one to provide that?
