Rose

Rose is a beautiful 6-year-old tortie whose world changed when her elderly owner had to move into assisted living. After spending her life in the only home she knew, Rose suddenly found herself starting over — and she's been showing us more of who she is as she settles into foster care. <br/><br/>Rose is a low-key, independent lady who appreciates having a space of her own and the freedom to decide when she's ready for attention. Once she feels comfortable, she seeks out affection from her humans and enjoys their company. She just likes having a say in the matter — very tortie of her! <br/><br/>Although Rose lived as an only cat previously, we've learned that she can peacefully share her home with other cats when introductions are handled appropriately. She isn't looking for a feline cuddle buddy or playmate, and if another kitty gets a little too close, Rose simply lets them know she'd prefer some personal space. We have not seen aggression from her — she just has boundaries and communicates them.<br/><br/>Rose would thrive with someone who appreciates an independent cat and understands that trust doesn't always happen overnight. Give her a comfortable place to settle in, allow her to move at her own pace, and let Rose show you the affectionate side she saves for the people she trusts.<br/><br/>She didn't choose to start over, but she deserves the chance to feel at home again
