In the shelter’s words
Name: Willow Age: Adult / DOB: 5/3/24 Weight: 8.5 lbs Gender: Female Breed: Calico / Domestic Short Hair Coat Length: Short Color: Calico Dog friendly: Yes Cat friendly: Yes, with slow intro Child friendly: Yes, would do best with older children Litter Box Trained: Yes Temperament: affectionate, curious, playful, shy upon first meeting Energy Level: Moderate Adoption Fee: $190+tax To adopt, go to: www.mendingspirits.org/apply-to-adopt.html From the Foster Family: Willow is a sweet and spunky girl, ready to be your new little companion! She does take a little while to warm up to a new space and people, but once she's able to feel comfortable and confident, she loves to explore, nap, and watch the world go by through the windows. While Willow is dog- and cat-friendly, she would do best in a calmer environment, as she's previously been overwhelmed by living with too many other pets, but will happily make friends with other respectful pets. She is a very independent girl, finding hiding places to sleep during the day or watching the room from her window perch, and will come rub up against my hands or legs when she wants affection. She's also been finding her voice more lately and will pepper me with the cutest little meows when she needs something or simply just wants a little attention. She also sleeps next to me in bed at night, often in between my legs or curled up next to me. Quick movements tend to frighten Willow and she's quick to dart away from loud or moving people. However, as she's gotten more comfortable around my family and home, this has gotten much better with a little time and patience. Willow would be a great cat for someone who has a busy schedule, as she's happy to spend time alone when necessary and then catch up at the end of the day with some love and affection. She'll let you know she missed you with some happy meows and a bump of her head against your hand. (Her adopter will also get her automatic feeder, which you can program to feed her at certain times every day!) She's still a young girl, ready to settle in and grow old with her purr-fect forever family!
