Why I need a new home

My story

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

Elvira is a very playful 10 year old kitty. She will love every toy you bring home to her, and would probably be great in a home with kids as long as they understand her boundaries (She hates being held and will scratch + will bite if pet too much/too fast).
She also LOVES food and will beg for whatever you have. Shes very good with my 2 small dogs and my bearded dragon. Although her and the cat don't really love each other, she does tolerate certain cats and will even lay next to them on the bed.
She will need an experienced cat owner due to her eye condition that causes tearing 24/7 and her occasional skin problems that cause her to scratch herself up terribly. She also has extremely fast growing nails that will need to be trimmed monthly.
She mostly hangs out in my bedroom on the bed all day but as soon as it's bedtime she comes out and starts to ask for love. Anytime we go into the bedroom shes so excited to see us and starts purring immediately because she loves to sleep with us
