My story

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

My name is Ithaca, and just like the destination in Homer’s Odyssey, I’m the home you’ve been searching for. I’m a sweet, loving brown tabby, always ready to greet you with purrs and headbutts after a long day of adventure. With me by your side, you’ll always have a place to return to—a cozy lap, gentle snuggles, and plenty of affection.

I may not have sailed the seas, but I’ve got the heart of a loyal companion who will stay by your side through every journey. Whether it’s curling up for a nap or following you around the house, I’ll be your faithful friend, guiding you home to love and warmth. You'll never fly too close to the sun with me!

Let me be the Ithaca you’ve been longing for. Take me home, and together we’ll write our own epic filled with happiness and endless companionship.________________________________________________
