Hyacinth is an adult spayed Dilute Torti female. Although she hides at first in any new environment or upon meeting strangers, she is really delightful. Petite Hyacinth does a lot of talking or chirping; she loves to play with crinkle balls or fake mice; she
is very curious and has been known to be a good alarm clock; she is a great lap cat and has a wonderful purr. Feline leukemia and aids negative; up to date on shots.
An update from the foster mom who is just trying to get her little girl a great home.f I am sitting down, she will come over to me, walk across my lap and plop down next to me. She will do the same even if I am lying down. Hyacinth loves to be close to me and will jump up, placing herself under the blanket in order to get a petting. Every once in a while, I will catch her standing on her back legs swatting at a catnip toy or a fake mouse. She is also a big purr machine and will go nose to nose to make sure you hear her. Although very vocal, she does not meow, she chirps or trills, instead.
