Ivy

Hi… my name is Ivy <br/><br/>I’m a three-year-old, petite tiger tabby girl with soft stripes and even softer feelings. I want to tell you a little about who I really am—because it’s hard to show my true self from inside a cage.<br/><br/>Truth is, I don’t love being confined. The cage makes me shy and guarded, and sometimes I’ll swat- because I don’t like the cage, the confinement the fear it sometimes causes me-but the moment I’m outside of it? Oh, that’s when the real Ivy appears. I become flirtatious, social, and full of love. I lean in, I rub, I soak up attention like sunshine. I want to connect.<br/><br/>I dream of being your one and only girl. I don’t want to share you with another cat or a dog—I want a quiet home where I can finally relax, feel safe, and know that I’m chosen. When I know I’m yours, and you’re mine, my heart opens completely.<br/><br/>I’m getting spayed on January 7, and I’ll be ready to go home as soon as January 8. I’ll need a little time and patience while I settle in, but please believe me when I say this: the love is already there. I just need the space to let it bloom.<br/><br/>I’m curious, affectionate, and deeply loving once I trust you. When I feel secure, I become a true cuddle bug—the kind of cat who wants to be near you, to share quiet moments, to be your companion through it all.<br/><br/>If you’re looking for a loyal, soulful cat to love—and to be loved by—please come meet me. Give me the chance to show you who I really am.<br/><br/>I promise, if you choose me, I’ll choose you right back. <br/><br/><br/>Love, Ivy <br/><br/><br/><br/>For more information and instructions on how to apply, please visit https://thepetrefuge.org/adopt/.
