Kitty Star, domestic shorthair
Kitty Star is a charming female domestic shorthair cat in the care of Cats Haven Ltd.
Kitty Star's ideal forever home would be a dog-free environment. Kitty Star would prefer a home without small children. She is already house-trained. She's been vaccinated and spayed. Kitty Star is a special needs pet, so please inquire about her specific care requirements.
Here's what Kitty Star's friends at Cats Haven Ltd. think of her:
Kitty Star loves attention, to be petted and to sit in your lap. As she is a plus-sized girl, she can curl up in your lap and keep you warm on a winter night. She likes to cuddle with you in bed, sometimes under the covers or on your pillow, but she also loves to sleep in her cat bed. When she gets wound up, she sometimes plays like a kitten. Probably her biggest "STAR" quality is her love of tummy rubs. She is a bit of a door darter, but it only took her one day to learn that if she didn't dash out a door, she would be given a tummy rub as soon as she flipped on the floor.

Nikolai's current caretakers say:
Nikolai is looking for a special home. He needs a quiet environment with a patient and loving person. Loud noises scare him, and he is also not the biggest fan of being held. He loves to be petted on his cheeks and on his back. He will hold your arm to let you know you are doing the petting right and also to make sure you don't stop too soon. He is shy at first but his personality shines once he is comfortable with you.Nikolai has a nickname, "Nextel Nikolai," because he chirps at you just like the phone. He has a great personality and just needs the right person to make him shine.
