About Nita

Nita is a sweet, but shy cat who tends to be a bit skittish. After her owner passed away, she became a strictly indoor cat and is in need of a gentle person who can provide one-on-one attention. Her beautiful long hair is complemented by her striking calico and brown tabby coloring, making her a lovely companion. Nita would thrive in a calm environment, so a quiet home would be ideal. Keep in mind that she doesn’t get along well with children, so she’ll need a child-free space to feel secure. Visit her at the Rockbridge SPCA to meet this special girl. What are you waiting for?
