Minnie

Meet Minnie Rose! <br/><br/>There is nothing small about Minnie Rose - she's a big girl with an equally big personality and some very firm opinions about personal space. <br/><br/> Age: 9 years old<br/> Personality: Curious, smart, independent & wonderfully quirky<br/> Affection: Loves being near her people - on her terms<br/> Handling: Touch-sensitive; does not enjoy being picked up or over-petted<br/> Kids: Adult-only home<br/> Ideal Home: Quiet, patient & understanding<br/> Favorite Thing: Her beloved basket - and YES, it comes with her!<br/> Currently: Relaxing in a foster home<br/><br/>After spending nine years with her family, Minnie found herself back at the shelter when she was surrendered. The transition was incredibly difficult for her, and after many months of shelter life, she became withdrawn and depressed. Thankfully, Minnie is now in a foster home, where she's been able to relax, settle into a routine, and show us who she really is. <br/><br/>And who is Minnie Rose?<br/><br/>She's curious. She's smart. She's a little grumpy. She's quirky. And she knows exactly how she wants to be loved.<br/><br/>Minnie absolutely LOVES her basket, and it's so important to her that it will be going home with her when she's adopted! Her foster dad has earned a special place in her heart by spending time near her every morning and letting Minnie decide when she wants affection. More often than not, she chooses to climb right into his lap. She even gives her foster mom little nose kisses! <br/><br/>Minnie loves being near her people, but she isn't a cat who wants to be picked up, held, or constantly petted. She's very touch-sensitive and may try to bite if she's overhandled or startled by an unexpected touch. Minnie needs someone who will pay attention to her body language and respect when she says she's had enough.<br/><br/>Most of her days are spent lounging, snoozing, observing her surroundings, and enjoying her people's company on her own terms. She's looking for a quiet, adult-only home with someone who will give her the time and space she needs to build trust.<br/><br/>Minnie Rose isn't going to be the right cat for every home - and that's okay. She doesn't need everyone to want her. She just needs that one person who appreciates a little attitude, doesn't need their cat to be endlessly cuddly, and understands how rewarding it can be to earn the trust of a sensitive cat.<br/><br/> After nine years in a home and a difficult adjustment to shelter life, Minnie deserves somewhere she can finally exhale and feel secure again. Maybe that's with you.
