My name is Purdy!

I adopted Purdy from a humane society in TN. Her previous owner died and she was put in a shelter from 7 months to 18 months old. That experience has made her standofish/fearful. She needs an experienced person that can continue to work with her. She has every characteristic of a pure maine coon, and I believe she was one of those rare finds in a shelter. She is vocal and takes awhile to warm up. She only likes attention on her terms and tends to want attention in the evenings and early mornings. She will rub on your legs or crawl in your lap for head pets. She gets over stimulated easily and is happiest when the house is quiet. We have kids, dogs, and another cat and lots of movement in the house that makes her nervous. I feel that she would be happier in a home with no children and no other cats (she is ok with dogs). She is a sweetheart and deserves a good life with someone who can give her the environment she needs to thrive.
