Nyx

Some cats purr sweetly in your lap, some rule the household with an iron paw, and then there&#39;s Nyx--a dazzling, firecracker wrapped in a fluffy calico coat. At 5 months old, she&#39;s equal parts affectionate companion and spirited mischief-maker, keeping life very interesting for the lucky human who doesn&#39;t mind being nibbled on now and then.<br/><br/>Nyx adores attention... She&#39;ll soak up head and neck scratches and happily snuggle with you all night long, but she&#39;s very clear about her &#34;no-no zones&#34; and she&#39;ll remind you--firmly. We suspect Nyx has &#34;Single Kitten Syndrome&#34;. This is when a kitten is raised with no siblings and hasn&#39;t learned how to play appropriately and react gently. But she&#39;s very predictable and it&#39;s easy to tell when to retreat.<br/><br/>She did very well with my young grandchildren who found her endlessly entertaining, and she agreed --as long as they kept their hands to themselves and let her hunt, chase, and pounce toys to her heart&#39;s content.<br/><br/>She was previously returned to another shelter because they didn&#39;t understand her personality, but I do, and I know her perfect match is out there. If you love a cat with opinions, a little spice, and a whole lot of charm, Nyx might just be your new best friend. Trust me--life with her will never be boring! <br/><br/>PS - She seems ok with dogs and would prefer to be an only cat.<br/>When adopting a kitten, consider a second kitten to avoid &#34;single kitten syndrome&#34;. Two kittens keep each other busy, get into less trouble, are better socialized and can keep each other company while you&#39;re gone. <br/><br/>When introduced properly, most cats and kittens adjust well to children and other pets in the home. It&#39;s critical that cats have a safe place to retreat to if interactions become overwhelming and that all early interactions are well supervised. If you already have a cat, please talk to us about how to introduce them to each other successfully.<br/><br/>All our cats and kittens are litter box trained, spayed or neutered, up-to-date on shots and worming and have been treated for fleas. They also are microchipped with a complimentary registration fee.<br/><br/>The fee for all our cats and kittens is $200 plus tax, with a $50 discount for adopting a second cat or kitten.<br/><br/>If you&#39;re interested in adopting, please complete an application at www.catspawjamas.org.<br/><br/>If you&#39;re &#34;just browsing&#34;, consider making a donation to our rescue via our website to help us continue to save cats and kittens at risk of death or homelessness.
