Sweet Pea - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

This li'l granny is very appropriately named. She loves to snuggle up on the couch and spends her days peacefully napping. But don't let her calm demeanor fool you, she has a big personality! Her walk has been described as a "strut" and she can get feisty and active as soon as a wand toy is brought out. She has a loud, rumbly purr whenever she's receiving pats and a hoarse little meow that comes out around breakfast time. Sweet Pea warms up quickly to new people, but can still be a little skittish around lots of noise or movement. She would probably prefer being an only cat, but she has been super sweet and friendly with human companions. Overall, she is a great cat for someone that wants a sweet, easy-to-please gal that won't get into trouble. Sweet Pea also has some seasonal and environmental allergies (Atopy), and takes an oral medication once every two days to help manage symptoms, but takes her medication easily and doesn't need a special diet or anything beyond one medication.
