I am a very playful girl but let's take it slow. No pick ups at first please, once I get to know you and get comfortable we will reach that level so don't worry! I would do better in a home with older children.

Story
Covie is a very sweet cat. She loves to cuddle and drool on you. She will follow you around and meow for your attention. We acquired Covie through someone on Nextdoor that was needing to rehome her because of personal reasons. We love animals and thought she would just fit right in. Unfortunately, she is very anxious around a busy environment and other animals. We have 4 boys, 2 other cats, and a dog. She hasn’t adjusted well and stays hidden away most of the day and night. She doesn’t get along with other animals. She’s not aggressive toward them at all, but rather stays hidden away. After a long time and careful consideration it’s clear she is not living her best life here with us. She needs a quieter and calmer environment with no other pets. There is nothing medically wrong with her that we are aware of. We are not 100% sure of her age (she’s around 5 yrs old), and she will need to be seen by a Vet for updated shots and exam.

Story
Hello Her name is Nique (named after my owners first high school boyfriend who recently passed away) she was born June 24th 2022. Nique is lovable and wants to be caressed by her demands with kisses to her head 🥰 and then she likes to be independents and relax. I have to surrender her because my daughter has a 7 month old and we have three cats and a dog which is now becoming a little overwhelming 😔 I don't want to take her to the shelter because they’ll euthanize her 😩 and she doesn’t deserve that. Nique has lived with my teacup Pomeranian since she was born so she’s cool with him. I would red your dog to be cool 😎 with her. Please help me re home her to a loving family. 😻😽
