Female Cat, Domestic Short Hair
Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (Short Coat)
Description:
The sweetest little thing you'll ever meet, Ava is easygoing, curious, and playful. She greets you with enthusiastic meows to show how much she missed you. If you sit down, she'll rub against your legs. Stay seated long enough, and she'll hop into your lap and start purring. In fact, she rewards pets with a purr, a head butt, and a loving look and will happily cuddle with you (or on you) at any time. She also loves to hunt ball toys and to stand watch when her human is in the kitchen. Ava has a hernia, but it's never slowed her down or seemed to cause her discomfort. She shows no issues with eating or digestion but will need an adopter who can take care of any future medical needs. Ava warms quickly to everyone she meets, and, though she is currently a solo feline in her foster home, her active and playful personality could mesh well with another cat.
