Sassy

My story

Meet Sassy aka Sissy 8/30 - I've come a long way in just a few months. I've learned people aren't so bad after all. While I'm still not a huge fan of being picked up or riding in carriers, I do love rubbing against legs and will even come for pets, if you don't move too fast. My favorite time is dinner and I will chat your ear off and rub lovingly against your leg while you prepare my dish. I'm a braiding girl with so much love to give, are you my person to give it to? Some might call me “semi-feral,” but my foster mom likes to say I’m just “semi-scared.” My name’s Sassy, and I’ve been through a lot. I lived outside with my mom and siblings until one heartbreaking day when I lost both my mom and a sibling. Left with two brothers—one with special needs—I stepped up to become their little protector. Because of all that, I’ve learned to be cautious, and it’s taken me about six months to start feeling safe indoors. I’m still unsure around new humans, but if you’re patient and bring treats, I promise I’ll slowly start to trust you. I may never be a lap cat, but I do love to play, and I’m a big fan of birdwatching from a comfy window perch. I absolutely must have another cat in my forever home—bonus points if they’re friendly and outgoing, because that will really help me continue to grow. Calm dogs don’t bother me much. It’s those unpredictable humans I’m still working on understanding. I know I’m not the easiest cat to love right away, but if you’re someone with a kind heart, a quiet home, and the patience to let me come around at my own pace... then maybe I’m the one you’ve been looking for. Will you give Sassy a chance? ##2205085##
