My name is Boise!

Boise is a super cute, sociable four-year old calico cat (we think her spots make her look like a little cow) that loves nothing more than being with her humans.  She will follow anyone who is home around, from room to room, brushing up against a hand or leg for a pet wherever you stop.  If you are not giving her the attention she desires while sitting on the couch, she will politely ask for pets by outstretching her paw and softly tapping your arm. While Boise loves pets and seeks them out throughout the day, she will let you know when she has had enough with a look or a light swat. Even if she says “no more for now”, she will stay put by your side, purring and enjoying sitting close by.

Once she gets comfortable, Boise likes to have conversations (we once meowed back and forth 32 times).  So far she has loved her wand toy.  Boise is great with the litterbox, and is a grazer - preferring bites of dry food throughout the day over wet food.  She is not particularly food motivated, nor has she taken a liking to treats (as of yet).  She simply wants to hang out by finding the softest spot to take a nap by your side, occasionally waking up for a pat before settling back down.

In her short time at her foster home we have seen her develop trust every day, with consistent love at a stable home, Boise will make an incredible companion cat! Given she will seek out affection, but decide halfway through that she is done with pets, we suggest she would be ideal for a home without children. 

This cat has been diagnosed with a heart murmur and would benefit from an echocardiogram -- we would appreciate it if their potential adopter could help us cover this cost in lieu of an adoption donation.
