About Joy Courtesy Listed

Joy is a delightful 9-year-old cat looking for her forever home. This outgoing feline thrives on attention and affection, often curling up beside her person under blankets or purring contentedly in their lap. Joy's playful spirit makes her a joy to have around, and her curiosity shines through as she explores her environment. While she adores being around people and would likely warm up to children, Joy does not get along well with dogs. She may need some time to adjust to other cats, though she shows interest in their scents. With her unique way of asking for affection—gently nuzzling her person's shin—Joy demonstrates her need for love and interaction. Consider welcoming this affectionate companion into your home.
