Do you have a high tolerance for chatty cats? Are you tired of catching your own house flies? Are you willing to share your pillow with a warm, furry purr machine?

If so, Dottie might be the cat for you!

Dottie is truly one of a kind. She may be tiny (fully grown at just 7 pounds!) but she has a huge personality. This little cat will keep you laughing with her antics, endless curiosity, and sweet, silly charm. She’s always ready to supervise your daily activities, carry on a conversation, or help you keep deal with any insects that dare enter the house.

Dottie came into our care with some behavioural challenges related to play aggression and defensiveness. Thanks to her dedicated shelter and foster family, she has made remarkable progress and has developed many new skills. We now believe she is ready to find her forever home.

Dottie is looking for an experienced cat guardian who is committed to continuing the work that has helped her succeed. She would do best in an adult-only home, or one with older, cat-savvy children. She is not a good fit for homes with other pets unless they are exceptionally tolerant of an energetic and highly playful feline companion.

As part of her treatment plan, Dottie has been taking anti-anxiety medication, which has been very beneficial for her. We recommend continuing this medication for at least several months after adoption while she settles into her new environment.

For the right person, Dottie will be an endlessly entertaining, affectionate, and rewarding companion.
