Penny's Story

Meet Penny!<br/>The absolute sweetest tuxedo cat youll ever meet, and one of my favorite cats Ive fostered! Shes a quiet and curious lady, and loves watching the birds and squirrels through the window. She was a little cautious at first and may need some time and space to get comfortable, but once she warms up and trusts you, she LOVES to be pet and will get as much attention as she can. Shes okay with a brush if you introduce it slow, and likes to watch where your hands are so she isnt surprised. She really enjoys playing with feather toys and wands, and still plays like a kitten! She has the cutest quirks, like stretching out when she walks or doing drive-by pets and then plopping on her side to knead the air. <br/><br/>She knows when shes getting wet food and will meow and squeak to let you know shes excited to see you. She even talks back when you talk to her and shes a great conversationalist. She was a bit nocturnal when she first came, but she comes out during the day once shes comfortable in her space. A lot of sudden movement or loud noises scare her and she is wary of fast moving hands or feet, but she will gently let you know if youre approaching too fast or if she needs more space. I think shes been through some tough circumstances, but has so much love to give and is ready to give it to someone who is patient and takes things at her pace!<br/><br/>Sometimes she doesnt give cues or theyre hard to read, so Id recommend her being with someone that has prior experience with cats. She might benefit from having another cat as company, and may do well with a dog given proper introductions; she seemed really scared with my neighbors energetic dog through the window, so I think a calmer dog would be fine. Im also not sure about how shed do around kids, I think older kids would be fine if they can respect her space and boundaries, but younger kids might be too much fast movement and noise for her. <br/><br/>Overall, shes a really wonderful cat. Very quiet, easy going, and loving girl who is endlessly entertaining with her inquisitive and funny personality! <br/><br/>*We only adopt and foster our animals within a 60 mile radius from New Brighton, MN*<br/>All of our adoptable animals can be seen by appointment.<br/><br/>Apply to adopt here: https://www.legendssenioranimalrescue.org/our-forms-2<br/><br/>Apply to foster here: https://www.legendssenioranimalrescue.org/foster-application<br/><br/>All of our foster animals can be seen by appointment.
