Joyce

Hi, I’m Joyce—and I’m here to add a little mystery, independence, and late-night snuggles to your life.<br/><br/>I’m not your typical lap cat—nope, I’m better. I prefer laying across your chest or curling up over your right shoulder like a furry parrot. At night, I’ll sleep near your face or somewhere along your body because, while I may be independent, I’m also deeply loyal to my person.<br/><br/>I don’t meow much, so I hope you’re good at mind reading! I’ll stare at you until you figure out what I want (it’s a fun game, really), and if you’re lucky, I might give you a hint. I don’t love being picked up—but I do love chasing laser pointers, birdwatching, and being entertained by pretty much anything that moves.<br/><br/>I’ve lived with other cats and I’m confident enough to stand my ground with any bullies. Dogs? Hard pass. I’ve met a few, and let’s just say we’re not destined to be best friends. I do fine with kids, though—I’m respectful and curious.<br/><br/>Oh, and a fair warning: I have a thing for chewing on string-like objects (and sometimes carpet corners), so you'll want to keep your drawstrings and rugs out of reach.<br/><br/>I’ve been waiting patiently for three years for someone to notice how special I am. If you’re looking for a companion who’s a little bit independent, a little bit cuddly, and a whole lot of personality—I’m your girl.<br/><br/>My adoption fee of $25 includes up-to-date vaccinations, dewormer, and heartworm/flea prevention. Plus, a microchip that is already registered to you! What more could you ask for?<br/><br/>If you'd like to meet me, please fill out an application on our website, PawmettoLifeline.org. Adoptions are by appointment Tuesday through Thursday, Friday and Saturday are walk in from 10-5. Please fill out the online application, and you will be contacted if you are approved and are a good fit for one of our adoptable pets.
