Adopt a Calico / Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat)
Venus the Cat needs a home
DOB: 6/3/16
Venus is a friendly, sweet and spunky calico kitten with beautiful gold colored eyes.
We've fostered Venus and her sister, Mandy, since they were 2.5 weeks old, and have hand raised/fed them from wobbly fur-puffs into adventurous, happy young kittens. Venus loves her sister and gets along well with our 3 permanent cats- they love to groom each other. Although she's affectionate and friendly, she knows when to stand up to the adult cats.
Venus is curious and loves to sit on the kitchen counter and watch us when we're cooking or puttering around. Sometimes we suspect that she's just patiently hoping for some more wet food. Venus doesn't love to eat as much as her sister, and it shows in her slim figure, but she goes into full spaz mode for freeze dried chicken treats.
Venus loves to play and her favorite toy is called 'da bird.' It's a feather toy on a string, and she will do amazing back flips while she tries to catch it! She also loves to run around with her sister, like they were a herd of gazelles. It's cute to hear the pitter patter of 8 little feet. She will also turn her effort dial up to '11' if you bust out a laser pointer.
She loves to end her day by jumping up onto our bed when we're about to go to sleep, and pur on our chests while meowing scratchily once in a while. When we're tucked in/after a few minutes, she'll usually find a more comfortable place at the foot of our bed for a long cat nap.
We've bathed her multiple, although she doesn't like it, it's very doable- just go slow and be gentle. She is also accustomed to having her nails trimmed but will try to wriggle out.
We want to adopt Venus and Mandy together, as they get along beautifully and will be great friends. Venus is FeLV and FIV negative, dewormed, and flea treated.
