Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Southbury, Connecticut

Ivy is 2.5 years old, she will be 3 at the end of June. She was originally adopted from Whiskers in 2023 as Catrina, but unfortunately even though they love her, they can no longer care for her. They gave us this info for her new family:

Once she gets to know you, she is the sweetest and most loving girl. Under the chin scratches are her favorite and a sure way to get the purr machine started. If she wants attention, she'll make sure you know by giving you soft headbutts to your hand.

Her nickname is Beebs, her previous owners called her Beebs more than her actual name (Ivy).

She has been around young kids, enjoys playing along and then will return to her comfy space when she's had enough.

Her time around other animals has been very minimal (twice) so it's hard to say if she would get along, she's been an only kitty her whole life!

Her favorite spot is by the window to soak up all the sun she can, sun bathing is in her top skills, along with zoomies.

She has definitely been the spoiled little girl she should be, and hopes to find another loving family to continue the lovings!

PS-her favorite toys are the crinkly foil ones (we called them crinkles) she will chase after them and probably will make sure a few end up under the couch!
