About Nugget

Nugget is an 8-year-old brown tabby with a warm and friendly personality. Her gentle approach makes her a delight to be around. She enjoys being social, engaging easily with new faces while often opting for the comfort of her bed, tuned into the activities around her. When someone comes close, Nugget quickly greets them with soft bumps and gentle nose nudges, showing her affectionate nature. Once she feels at ease, she relishes attention, purring loudly to express her happiness while leaning into pets. While Nugget previously lived with both a dog and a cat, her current comfort level with other animals remains unknown, so any new introductions should be gradual. Although she has no history with children, she may do best in a home with older kids who can respect her space. Nugget is declawed and will thrive in a calm, caring environment where she can receive love at her own pace. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
