About Nutmeg

Meet Nutmeg! This lovely brown-and-white tabby girl was born at the end of June 2026. She’s a bit shy, but with patience and kindness, she's making progress every day. Nutmeg loves to play with toys and is curious about her surroundings, always motivated by treats. Nutmeg would thrive in a calm home with older school-aged children who can provide the time and space she needs to feel secure. Additionally, having another friendly cat in her new home would be beneficial, helping her build confidence and learn the ropes. Though she may need a bit of time to come out of her shell, watching her grow and learn to trust is part of what makes her incredibly special. With the right environment and a little patience, this sweet girl has so much potential. Could Nutmeg be the purrfect addition to your family?
