Havana Brown kittens & cats in Corvallis, Oregon

Curly is a super senior! not only in age but in her wonderful personality. She was surrendered to the shelter when her owner passed away and now is looking for a home to spoil her. We have performed multiple diagnostics tests on her and is in surprisingly great health given her geriatric status. If you haven`t fallen in love with her blue eyes and manx tail, her flirty personality will surely win you over. She is currently in a foster home being doted on, so if you would like to meet her call the shelter today to set up an appointment to meet her!Here is what her foster parent has to say about her: Curly is a sweet, opinionated elderly lady. She is very sociable, but she likes to be in charge. If anyone picks her up and moves her to a certain place, she will immediately find somewhere else to be. When just hanging out, she`ll let you know if she wants to be petted, if she wants your lap without petting, or if she just wants to be near you without further contact. She prefers having her human nearby always, even if she doesn`t want cuddles at that particular moment. At meal times, she gets very excited, rushing around and purring, sticking her tail straight up while kneading with her back feet. Her other favorite time of day is anytime the human goes to a petting place, where the human sits and she can climb into their lap and get her tummy rubbed; she gets wide-eyed, then rushes over to receive appropriate attention. Better yet, she loves to have `mid-meal cuddles.` After receiving her wet food and eating some, she has to stop and go to the human to get some scratches before she can finish her meal. She will usually make several mid-meal cuddle trips per meal. Although she prefers to have company while eating, she`s okay on her own if the humans are otherwise engaged. Despite her age, she still has energy and will sometimes play or race around. She doesn`t have any trouble jumping up onto higher surfaces (but she`s never jumped onto the kitchen counter). She loves watching and stalking birds through the window. Because of her age, her eyes and ears don`t work as well as they once did. Possibly because of that, she likes to have a chance to smell any reaching hands before allowing them to touch her. Her response to the hand, once she`s done smelling, she tells you whether she wants to be petted. Biting, hissing, smacking, pho-biting, or ignoring are signs she gives for `no petting` with full head bumps and almost-head bumps are `yes` to petting,

***SPECIAL NEEDS***Sweet, flirty, shy and friendly, those are the words that best describe this little litter. I have something called ‘Regressive FeLV.’ This form of FeLV, or Feline Leukemia, is one that I will likely test negative for in the coming weeks! My immune system is helping fend off the infection before it becomes permanent. I may or may not be contagious to other cats, so it would be best if I went to a home without other cats until I test negative. I can totally go home with one of my siblings, though! Veterinarians are still learning about the different forms of this disease, and Heartland staff are happy to answer your questions to the best of their ability. There may be other kitties that are more exotic or fancier, but none have a bigger heart than these little sweeties. If you are interested in meeting them or discussing more about them, don’t delay call the shelter today! They do not need to be adopt together, but we do find that the girls are a little more bonded. Adoption fee $115
