Herb

Herb – The Pocket-Sized Brown-Tabby Firecracker Who Runs on Silent Mode (Until Playtime Hits)<br/><br/>Herb is a sleek, young brown tabby with the sweetest little face that looks permanently surprised in the best way. She’s the cat equivalent of a ninja librarian: quiet, polite, and secretly plotting world domination via feather wand.<br/><br/>Most of the time Herb is whisper-quiet. No loud demands, no drama—just soft slow-blinks and gentle tail flicks while she watches the world from her favorite perch. Then someone (you) brings out a toy, and the switch flips. Herb transforms into a tiny tornado of pounces, flips, and dramatic sideways leaps that would earn a perfect 10 from any judge. She goes from 0 to 100 and back to 0 in seconds, then sits there grooming a paw like “What? I’m always this dignified.”<br/><br/>Petting? Yes, please, and thank you. She’ll weave figure-eights around your hand, do the full elevator-butt for back scratches, and purr like a quiet little motor.<br/><br/>Picking her up? Depends on the mission. If you’re the official taxi service back to her condo after playtime, she’s all in—she’ll even help by climbing into your arms. Random mid-zoomie scoop-ups? She turns into a polite but wiggly noodle who would really rather be chasing that piece of lint right now.<br/><br/>Herb is currently labeled “only cat preferred” because if another kitty crowds her or plays too rough, she gives fair warning (one polite hiss) and then escalates to swatty drama queen mode. With a calm, respectful cat who speaks “live and let live,” she’s totally fine—happy to share sunbeams and ignore each other in perfect harmony.<br/><br/>If you want a young, velvety tabby who saves her voice for special occasions, turns playtime into an Olympic event, and rewards quiet evenings with the softest head boops, Herb is ready to go home. Come meet Herb. She’s saving her next silent pounce just for you.<br/><br/>Visitors to the shelter are by appointment only and after a form has been submitted online:<br/><br/>https://www.marshmallowfoundation.org/forms/
