Meet Dot. We feel we should be honest about Dot-- she is going to dislike you when you meet her. She hates change of any kind and will hiss and hide from strangers when she meets them. It took her about a month to like her foster mom-- and she peed on the bed multiple times during that month. However, once she trusts you, she is the most affectionate cat on earth. She will always want to be right next to you, purring and making biscuits. She is talkative and playful. She is also litter trained (once she likes you). To keep it simple, Dot needs a quiet home without many visitors or changes. Children who live there or visit should be mature enough to be respectful of Dot`s adjustment period-- she will scratch or bite if touched by someone she does not yet like/trust. Dot has lived with a calm dog and cat before, but will need a very slow introduction to new pets (over the course of a few months). If you are wiling to be patient for the most snuggly cat, look no further. Apply for Dot today!
