Notes from The Dancing Cat

Nigella is overflowing with affection, it is so lovely to get to be in her company. She is most definitely a cat in search of a best friend with a cozy lap!

She loves to rub her face on cardboard boxes while you pet her back and tail. She also loves looking out the window and watching the day go by. She uses the scratching post while staring at you like she is showing off a very cool trick. She will chase you and tap her paws on your ankle to let you know that she’s worried you’re leaving the room.

Nigella loves to chase the mouse wand toy and play with strings. She is an excellent litter box user, thank you very much. She loves treats and could probably excel at treat puzzles!

She’s quick and loves to explore. She has never lived with other pets, so were unsure of her preferences. Nigella is the type of cat who will talk to you when you call her, so be ready to sing Hey There Nigella to her!

Prior to adoption, all cats/kittens are spayed/neutered, tested for FIV/FeLV, vaccinated, dewormed, deflead, and microchipped.
