Penelope's Story

Penelope is a sweet, good-natured girl who takes her time warming up, and that's perfectly okay. Once she feels safe and settled, her gentle personality really shines. She isn't looking for excitement or a lot of commotion; she's looking for a quiet corner, a kind hand, and a home where she can finally exhale.<br/><br/>Penelope gets along well with other cats, so she can absolutely thrive in a multi-cat household. There is one thing worth knowing: she may block her feline housemates from their food. This is easily managed with separate feeding stations, a small routine adjustment that makes a big difference for everyone.<br/><br/>Penelope is also currently on a weight management diet, so keeping her meals consistent and separate is already part of her routine. Her adopter will simply need to continue that plan as she works toward a healthier weight.
