Nala's Story

My name is Nala and I wanted to introduce myself. I grew up on the streets of Phoenix until a rescuer took me in and gave me a foster home. Unfortunately, life happened and they couldn't keep me. I was transported to Tucson to join a foster home there. I'm very social and outgoing, but I’m not a lap cat. I will join you on the couch or bed for cuddle time and to watch TV as I LOVE to get pets but I can't lay in one place for too long; I will get up and stretch my legs and come back for more chin scratches. My one quirk is that I love gently sneak attacks and use my foster dad's arm as a warm up before playtime with toys. I have to point out that I don't break skin when I play but he says that I'm not a good fit for smaller children because of it. My favorite toys are string toys and anything that can be thrown and chased. I like playing with the kitten in my current foster home but I need a lot of time to warm up with older cats. I guess they don’t prefer my energy level. I would do best in a calm environment with plenty of attention, chin scratches, and a adult human to love on. In return, I would help you cut back on your screen time on the phone by gently nudging it out of your hands - if that's something you'd like me to do. If you want to meet me, please submit an adoption application via http://www.SOSCatRescueAZ.org/Adoption-Application Email: info@SOScatrescueAZ.org Call: (520) 445-3889 Thank you! My $160 adoption fee includes *spay surgery *age appropriate vaccinations (FVRCP and rabies) *treatment for internal & external parasites *microchip implant DSH, grey tabby with white Female - spayed DOB: approx. 04/18/2023
