Vasya is a 4-year and 5-month-old female Domestic Long Hair. This large kitty sports a lovely coat in shades of gray, blue, and silver with white, and she has been spayed and vaccinated. She is currently in Springfield, MA, and is looking for a loving home that can provide her with the cozy spots she enjoys and the patience to help her settle in.

About Vasya

Meet Vasya! This calm girl enjoys curling up next to her person but is also content to simply be nearby if cuddling isn’t on the agenda. She loves head scratches and seeks cozy places to relax after her adventures around the house. In her previous home, Vasya lived with another cat and would likely appreciate a feline friend again, especially with a slow introduction to ensure everyone feels comfortable. Change can be hard for Vasya. She might feel nervous at first when you bring her home, so it's important to set up a separate room with her essentials—a litter box, food, and water. Give her a few days to adjust; she'll be coming with a behavior plan that will help her settle in successfully. If you're interested in adopting Vasya, you can meet her during in-person adoption hours or opt for a remote adoption. Either way, she’s ready to find her forever home with you.
