About Penny

Meet Penny, your potential new best friend! This sweet, playful mama cat is eager to find her forever home after spending 12 weeks in foster care, raising five adorable kittens. A few things to love about Penny: she's friendly and affectionate, enjoying pets, brushing, and rubbing against your legs. Penny is also a playful girl, relishing wand toys, springs, and even giving high-fives for treats! As a sunshine seeker, she loves to watch the world from her cozy perch by the window, explore new spaces, and enjoy cozy naps. While she appreciates affection, Penny prefers it on her own terms and isn't a fan of being picked up. This lovely lady is friendly with visitors, making her a wonderful companion for families, including those with children aged six and up. Penny dreams of a sunny window, a comfy cat tree, and a family who respects her independent spirit. After dedicating so much time caring for her babies, it's now her turn to be someone's cherished pet. Could you be the one to give her that happily-ever-after? Penny will be available for adoption this weekend!
