About Precious

Meet Precious, currently in a loving foster home. This unique girl is a lovely blend of calico and tabby, and she’s blossomed outside the stressful shelter environment she once knew. In her foster family, she enjoys watching the world through windows, playing with catnip, and chasing laser pointers. Her favorite toys include springs and mice, and she's quite the fan of cat trees. Precious eagerly anticipates her meals, especially wet food—just avoid the fish pate. For treats, nothing beats Temptations catnip! She adores being petted and brushed, often signaling for affection by tapping your arm and giving gentle licks. Precious gets along well with other adult cats and would thrive in a quieter household where she can feel safe. It's important she has a cozy hideaway to retreat to while she adjusts to her new surroundings. If you're interested in adopting her, please reach out to her foster family!
