Meet Pansy, the Communication Team’s Office Foster!

We have learned a lot about Pansy while she keeps us company in the office. (She makes a great coworker!) She is an eight-year-old female who can be a little timid at first when meeting new people and she may take some time to get used to a new environment, but with love and patience, you could win her heart. Pansy loves a peaceful and quiet environment. Every morning, she is always out and about waiting to say ‘Hi.’ before the day gets too busy. She may hiss at loud noises, but she is a big chicken! Her hiss is her just communicating ‘I didn’t like that noise.’ This cat loves her crunchy food and would enjoy spending each of her meals with someone. She is a social eater.

She enjoys her personal space. Once she is comfortable, Pansy is an absolute love bug and will want all your attention! She loves chin scratches and brushing, and with more time and dedication she is likely to blossom into an even more lovely cat than she already is! The most interesting part about Pansy, is she has extra toes! This girl is a polydactyl cat or as some people refer to them as Hemmingway Cats. Her extra toe-beans are beautiful! She is a single lady; she would do best as the only pet in her future home. Interested in coming to meet this lovely gal?

Pansy is also one of Yana’s “Special” Felines which means her requested adoption donation has been underwritten and she will be sent home with an individualized starter kit of supplies and other support based on her unique needs.
