Meet Monkey!

Today’s Featured Friday Pet is Monkey!

Who doesn’t love a strong, independent woman?? Monkey is an opinionated beauty who may be least touchy-feely of all our cats, but has a no-nonsense attitude that’s refreshing and frankly relatable. Playful, spirited and spunky, Monkey loves a laser pointer, hates being picked up, and isn’t afraid to dish out a little back-sass. Although she’s only 3 years old, Sophia from the Golden Girls might be her spirit animal. Look up “tortie-tude” in the dictionary, and you may find an actual picture of our beloved Monkey.
Although Monkey’s strong willed nature isn’t for everyone, she does have lots of great qualities that will make her a great cat for the right person. Monkey has lived with dogs, so someone looking for a canine-savvy kitty should consider this confident feline. With that said, being queen of her castle with no other pets around might also suit her just fine. She’s probably a bit too saucy for young kids, but she has successfully lived with older kids that respect her authority. Monkey also may be a cat that would enjoy some safe outdoor access when she’s comfortable in a new home. This lovely little diva is sure to bring a lot of joy to the lucky person willing to worship her suitably! If you think Monkey might be the cat for you, please stop in to meet her today! Adoption fees are only $15 until Christmas Eve!
