Petunia

Hi, I'm Petunia! I'm still settling into my new surroundings after a rough start to life-I came here with my siblings after being left in someone's driveway. Despite that, I'm a strong, beautiful girl with a whole lot of personality packed into my petite paws.

I'm definitely what you'd call spicy. I enjoy being petted… until I don't -and when I'm done, I'll let you know with a quick (and impressively fierce) little swat. I'm not trying to be mean; I just have strong opinions and I'm learning how to communicate them better every day.

I'm a vocal lady and will happily greet you the moment you open the door to my room. I haven't quite figured out toys yet, but my humans are patiently teaching me how fun they can be. I do know that I love the top of my cat tree, soaking up the sunshine from the windowsill, and supervising the world outside like the queen I am.

Strangers make me nervous, so I'll need a home that understands I need time, patience, and respect for my boundaries. I haven't officially met other cats or dogs yet, but I don't hiss or react through the door, so with slow introductions, I may do just fine.

If you're looking for a stunning calico with bright, expressive eyes, a sassy streak, and a big personality, I might just be your girl. I'm still learning and growing, and my story is just getting started-check back for updates as my humans get to know me even better!
