Listen up, my furiends! We are on a mission to help our long-term Scruffy Paws residents find their furever families, and next up, we have nap master - Evie!
Miss Evie!!! This 3.5-4-year-old sweetie has been with us for 1087 days. Evie was found outside in the area of Providence, and she was brought in with another cat, who has since been adopted. We don't believe they were related, but when Evie met this other cat outside, she felt way more secure in her presence and continued to follow her. Evie LOVES other cats and is way more comfortable when they are around. She doesn't like playing rough and enjoys being in other cats' company. She loves the laser pointer. Evie can be timid at first and will need proper time to acclimate. But she's not aggressive at all! She enjoys mealtime and head scratches. Touch her back, she might bop you, but doesn't use her nails. She is not a big fan of being picked up. She LOVES her roommates and needs another cat in the home. If the other cat in the home is friendly and outgoing, Evie will follow their lead eventually. She would do best in a quieter home setting. Again, cat(s) are a must! I don't know how she would do with a dog, but she would need one of those respectful dogs that are not all up in your business. This girl needs a chance. Please consider being her chance. She is very low maintenance.
