Scrabble (Special Needs)

My story

Scrabble is a sweet, four-and-a-half-year-old girl with main character energy, looking for her forever home! This stripey gal is fearless and outgoing from the first time she meets you. She isn’t much of a cuddler but likes to be near people—she often likes to sit on the couch or the floor near you while you watch TV, but she’s not typically going to get in your lap. Scrabble goes nuts for almost any kind of toy but particularly loves balls or springs to bat around on the ground. She is super happy to entertain herself with her toys or birdwatching out the window; she also loves giving herself a manicure by scratching, so it’s a good idea to have a couple of scratching posts or pads around the house for her. Scrabble can be a bit mouthy when she is in the middle of playing, similar to the way kittens can be a bit nippy—it's not malicious and does not hurt. She can easily be gently redirected with a new toy or activity. Scrabble loves food both wet and dry; she might benefit from something like an automatic or timed feeder, so she doesn’t bug her humans too much when she is hungry. Besides at mealtime, she is a very tidy kitty and takes very good care of her long soft fur; her forever humans will need to brush her regularly to help her keep her lovely coat in tip-top shape. Scrabble uses the litter box very well. This pretty girl truly enjoys being in the mix of household activities. She is fairly high energy for an adult cat and is always happy to play. Scrabble lives with two adults in a quiet home with no other animals. Previously she lived with other cats and her high energy could be off-putting to them (she loved playing amped-up, kitten-like games of chase, and they weren’t always into it). Because of this, Scrabble would likely do best life as a solo kitty; however, she’s never tried living with a dog. She is very outgoing and will do well in a variety of households, as long as her people either work from home or are are around a lot to give her the affection she seeks. Since she can get a bit nippy when playing, she may not be the best fit for young kids. She would be better suited to cat-savvy older children/tweens/teens. This energetic, adorable gal is so ready to live the good life in a cozy, loving home that can support her vibrant personality and give her the care, attention and company she enjoys. After all, who doesn’t love a good game of Scrabble? Interested in adopting or learning more about this cat?
