Nova's Story

Nova is super plush and soft! She is very affectionate but also appreciates having her own space just like any dilute tortishell girl! She seems to like other cats and if you are looking for two then her friend, Opal, would be a good choice. They love to nap and play together (see pics). Nova can be shy in new situations, so it's very important she has her own little spot to feel safe. Seeing Opal or other cats being social helps to get her out of her shell!
