About Teddy

Meet Teddy, an energetic young cat who arrived at the shelter on September 30th. With her playful charm, Teddy loves to chase after small toys like noise-makers and ping pong balls, showcasing her acrobatic skills. She's a curious thinker, thriving in a spacious and quiet home where she can safely release her zoomies and somersaults. Providing plenty of enrichment—think feather chasers and scratching posts—will keep her smart mind engaged. To help her adjust, it's recommended to give her some time in a calm space before fully exploring her new environment. Keep food secured, as this inquisitive gal knows how to explore. Teddy's adoption comes with a special request: a top-loading cat carrier for her trip home. Ready to welcome this playful star into your life?
