Story
My roommates and I got her a couple days ago thinking it was someone’s cat in our apartment building. Nobody has claimed her at all, and I’ve called multiple apartments around the area for any reported missing cats. She has no microchip either and I’ve contacted shelters to put her on lost and found list and nobody has contacted me in the last couple of days. I would love to find her a home. She is SUPER sweet and loves cuddles. I’m not sure how well she will do with dogs or other cats but she loves humans. I maybe concerned that she might have a little bit of separation anxiety, so I’m really looking for a family or someone who can give her the care she needs.
