Animal Shelter Report: Purrsonality-plus Zoey is Pet of the Week

Published 8:51 am Monday, May 23, 2022

Zoey is a very beautiful, bold, and intelligent two year old tabby. She has a pretty brown and black longer hair coat, and we think she may be either a Maine coon or Norwegian forest cat mix. Like a lot of cats, she is selective about who she likes and knows what she wants. Once someone gains her trust, she is loyal, social, and loves lap sitting and playing. She enjoys being carried around, and loves playing with wand toys. She will even bring her favorite toy to visitors and Cat Cuddlers, and then wait, just staring until she gets a response!

Zoey enjoys being engaged and involved, and likes to keep busy. She is very inquisitive and sometimes gets overloaded by her environment, which can result in her being cranky. For this reason, she needs a calm but interactive environment so we recommend a home without children.

Her ideal home would be with someone who is cat saavy and understands her occasional “cattitude” and will be patient with her on occasion. Her special person will be rewarded with a beautiful and unique kitty. As Pet of the Week, Zoey’s adoption fee has been halved to just $25 and she is fully vetted and ready to go!
