Lydia's Story

Pint sized Lydia is fully grown despite her kitten-like appearance! <br/><br/>Weighing in at a whopping six pounds, this little gal will wow you with her beautiful deep orange eyes and marbled tabby pattern. Despite her permanent serious face, she is friendlier than she appears! When you first meet Lydia, she often looks frightened-but I promise, all you have to do is reach out and pet her and she starts purring! She just has "that look" (who among us, am I right???). <br/><br/>If her purrs don't convince you, try giving her a churu. Lydia loves treats! You'll soon realize that this wild looking little kitty with the serious eyes is actually very loving and affectionate! It doesn't take long before she starts purring and head butting you in return. <br/><br/>Lydia goes absolutely bonkers for laser pointers! She also really enjoys a pinch of catnip now and again! However, she's not overly-energetic. Her personality is a nice balance of playful, affectionate, and calm.<br/><br/>Lydia is approximately 4 years old. She's polite around other cats, and seems to get along best with our other small female felines (Looking for a pair? Check out similarly tiny Martini!). She would probably do well with other calm/shy cats, or as an only cat. We haven't seen her interact with dogs or small children yet, but based on her overall vibe I think she needs a calm environment to live her best life. Older kids or a calm, cat savvy dog would probably be ok though. <br/><br/>Lydia is up-to-date on vaccines, exams, FIV/FeLV tested (negative), flea treated, dewormed, spayed/neutered and microchipped. Our vet has noted that she has some minor dental issues that need to be monitored over time, but she is otherwise in great health.<br/><br/>Apply to adopt! Information located at animaladvocates.net
