My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Calypso, a magnificent calico with a tiny spot on her nose and a presence you can’t help but notice. This sweet gal is quite large, but she has a heart equally as large to match. And her appetite is just the same size. She’ll need a human with excellent ability to help her with portion control at mealtime. 

 

Calypso exudes affection and high confidence. Approach her for cuddles, and you'll experience her coziness. When she’s done with pets, she’ll let you know with a gentle swat. 

 

Calypso’s interactive nature shines through during playtime, particularly with soft toys, soft balls, and crinkle stuffies. When the sun sets, you'll find her favorite sleeping spots on the back of the couch, the bed, or the floor, as she enjoys a nice snooze. Calypso is a relatively quiet cat and doesn't meow much, but her food motivation is undeniable.

 

Calypso has had positive interactions with cats, especially older kittens in her foster home. Since she likes to be in charge, she can clash with other cats that have equally big personalities or preferences. More laid back and submissive cats that she can lead are Calypso’s cup of tea. Calypso can be quite social, and she seems to have a preference for women. Once she gets to know you, her initial shyness transforms into confidence and affection. 

 

Calypso's complex personality suggests she would thrive as the sole kitty in a home where she can be the queen, admired and loved by her human family. She would do best in a home without kids due to her particular nature, but could do alright in homes with older teens who can appreciate her unpredictable charm. If you’re looking for a feline monarch to rule the roost with her strong yet sweet personality, Calypso is just the gal for you.
