Female Cat, Tabby
Tabby / Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (Short Coat)
Description:
Approximate Date of Birth:3/5/2020 Description: My name is Tesoro, which means treasure in Italian. But I am also known by my spy name, the Silver Streak, because of the speed and agility I displayed when working as a field agent! After my career as a spy, living off the land by my wits, I came in from the cold to birth my children. They grew up and left home, but I have decided not to return to my life of undercover intrigue. I am ready to settle into a quiet life of napping and free food in a climate controlled environment. Because of my former life I am still a bit skittish and wary of new people, but patience and squeeze up treats can bring me out of my shell. I still crave excitement sometimes, but would be happy to satisfy myself with a secure surveillance window where I can keep an eye on things for you and hunting down and disposing of the occasional fly or moth that may try to infiltrate our home. Do you need an intelligence-trained stealth kitty? I am willing to work for room, board and love. Words to Describe Me: shy, quiet, food-motivated Favorite Place to Sleep: Top of the cat tree or a warm, secure corner Favorite Toy: live prey or stuffed or feathered practice prey Perfect Day: An early breakfast, comfortable nap, shift at the window, ridding the house of any flying or six-legged interlopersreat, followed by a substantial supper & bedtime t Kitty's Likes: Tall cat trees with a window view Kitty's Dislikes: be held or approached too quickly Fastest Way to Get Me to Purr: smelly wet food or treats Favorite Treat: If it squeezes I eats it Job Title in Foster: The undercover agent When I Grow Up, I Want to Be: retired from The Game Other Info: Tessie needs someone patient and gentle.
