Gigi's Story
Gigi is not a “walk in the door and she’s instantly obsessed with you” kind of cat. She’s the girl who watches you first. She studies your vibe. She decides when she’s ready.<br/><br/>She feels big emotions: fear, curiosity, affection, uncertainty and they live right on the surface. It’s part of her charm. One moment she flops over tempting you to give her belly rubs, purring like a tiny motor; the next moment she remembers that life hasn’t always been safe and backs away or gives a little “that’s enough for now” swat.<br/><br/>She’s not moody—she’s honest.<br/>And the connection she offers once she trusts you is deep and real.<br/><br/>For three years, Gigi lived with one person. She wasn’t socialized to crowds or chaos—she bonded hard to her person and lived a quiet little life.<br/>Then he passed away. No one claimed her. She was taken from everything she knew and placed at ACC: bright lights, strange hands, constant noise, no familiar smells. Her fear looked like “aggression,” and she was put on the euthanasia list. <br/><br/>Her hot-and-cold behavior today makes sense—she learned early that the world can change overnight. She loves boldly but protects herself fiercely. She reaches out, then pulls back. She wants connection, but on safe, predictable terms. And honestly? It’s completely valid.<br/><br/>https://gigiadopt.wixsite.com/adopt-gigi

She’s not moody—she’s honest.
