About Fig

Fig is a striking torbie with a vibrant personality! This lovely lady is on the lookout for a special family. After arriving at the shelter with a mammary mass, which was thankfully found to be benign, she’s ready for a new home. Embracing her tortie spirit, Fig can be quite the character. She’s social and outgoing, but when she's done with attention, she's definitely done. She strongly dislikes other cats and can be food aggressive, so an adult home with knowledgeable cat owners is essential. Since she was found outside, it's likely she was someone's indoor/outdoor cat. Fig may need the freedom to roam to feel comfortable, and potential adopters should prepare for possible behavior quirks as she adjusts. Transitioning from kennel life to a home may help, but keep in mind that some cats always long for the outdoors. Think you can give Fig the loving, patient home she deserves? Apply to adopt today!
