Dotty and her siblings were living in the yard of a woman in Holtville who threatened to shoot and kill them; she did shoot another cat that was there. A local rescuer was able to get the family out to safety and they later came to The Rescue House.
Dotty is a busy young lady! She gets very focused on her daily activities: playing hallway soccer, tossing toy mice, chasing rogue bugs that sneak in, scaling cat trees, keeping an eye on what you're doing on the other side of that door... she's happy and bouncy and agile and curious, darting around with quick purposeful movements. She'll pause to lounge on the top perch of a cat tree where she can observe her surroundings, but it isn't until evening when Dotty will really settle. The work day is done and it's time for more leisurely pursuits like getting pets and rubs through her soft pretty fur while you watch TV together. Dotty also loves to lie down in bed and sleep next to you. She can give you gentle love-nibbles from time to time when you're petting her to show that she's happy. Dotty does best with people she specifically knows, appreciating an introductory period, and the more time you spend with her the closer you will become.
Dotty enjoys the company of other cats and will head-bump them and then rub against their bodies. She'd best like to have a feline friend and has never been alone, though would likely be okay as a solo cat so long as she gets plenty of enrichment with wand toys. She ignores her foster's dogs. Dotty can startle with fast movements and loud noises, so we recommend an overall calmer home with adults or with cat-savvy older children.
Dotty is a darling! Will she be your beloved companion?
