In the shelter’s words

DOB: 11/10/24 Hey there, everyone! I’m Rosita, a sweet, calm, affectionate brown tabby gal who loves to be petted and to sleep with Foster Meowmy. Don’t let my perennially grumpy countenance fool you because I’m not ever angry – except when one of the older resident kitties goes overboard while asserting her "tortie-tude." Actually, I think that my usual downward head-tilt makes me look very coy! Meowmy spotted me when I was a lonely orphan kitten amongst the colony of feral cats whom she feeds. Thinking that I wanted to stay unsocialized, she spayed me and, after I’d recovered from surgery, tried to release me. But once I’d enjoyed the amenities of indoor life, I wanted none of that hardscrabble outdoor life ever again! So I returned to Foster Meowmy’s door and begged to come back to her safe haven inside, and I’m so grateful that she obliged. I have so much fun playing with the other foster kitties, although I’m perfectly fine leading a solitary life when I need a “time out” from all the feline rowdiness. Notwithstanding the fact that I luxuriate when Foster Meowmy scratches my chin, cheeks, and ears, I'm like a lot of kitties because I’m not fond of being picked up. Now I’m ready to bring my serene disposition and adorably grouchy face to grace my forever home with joy and happiness. Could that be you? I can only imagine the sweet dreams we could have sleeping together should you decide to take me home with you! Arrange to meet me today!
