Meet Pickles, a female cat with a gentle personality and unique journey. Pickles was a neighborhood cat who found her own foster family. Slowly befriending her foster-mom-to-be, Pickles came by for food and company. One day, Pickles didn’t want to leave. Pickles gave birth to 5 kittens a few weeks later. Pickles has done her motherly duties and is now looking for her forever home. Her foster found her untrusting, but after a few months of love and patience, Pickles showed her softer side.
Pickles plays with her kittens and sometimes plays with toys on her own. She likes to hang by her foster’s other cats, although she doesn’t snuggle or play with them. Pickles hasn’t met any dogs or children yet, but she is accepting of visitors once they become familiar. Pickles likes some daily activity but also enjoys some down time, and she loves all kinds of food. Pickles is a tough gal – she is used to being outside, even in harsh weather – so she would feel most at home with some outdoor space. She is litter box and litter robot trained.
Pickles’ foster mom describes her as an "aloof admirer who secretly loves pets and scratches. What sets Pickles apart is her appreciative nature, her independence, and her vulnerability. She always feeds her kittens first, and she is known for making silly faces. Her foster found her untrusting, but after a few months of love and patience, Pickles felt comfortable enough to show how loving and sweet she is. Pickles had a rough start, but deserves a loving home and family where she can spend the rest of her life.
If you’re looking for a laid-back yet affectionate companion, Pickles might just be the perfect fit for you.
