Tabitha is a sweet, patient, and endlessly curious cat! Found as a stray, completely malnourished and suffering from untreated hyperthyroidism, she weighed only 2 kg and had to be shaved due to severe matting.
After two months of recovery in her foster home, Tabitha has blossomed into a loving, affectionate companion! She’s now ready to find her forever home!
Tabitha is a total purring machine and a devoted lap cat. Even when she was at her weakest, she purred the moment she was touched. These days, she prefers to curl up beside you or on your lap, and has a signature move when she wants attention: standing in front of you and staring with her big, soulful eyes until you give in. It works every time!
She gets along wonderfully with other cats, mostly because she ignores them completely, and is naturally calm and unbothered. She’s also very curious and loves to explore every corner of her surroundings (even the vet’s office!).
Tabitha will need thyroid medication for life, but her condition is very manageable and common in older cats. She’s a pro at spitting out pills, but turns into an angel when medication is paired with a liquid treat. Her thyroid levels are now stable.
Her mealtime habits are endearing: she’s a messy eater and drinker who tends to get wet food on her face and then dunk it right into the water bowl. She likes to alternate bites and sips, so expect to wipe her adorable face and clean her water fountain every few days.
She has a hilariously cute, raspy “old lady” meow that she mostly saves for breakfast time. It never fails to make her foster laugh.
And just one more thing: Tabitha once walked across her foster’s keyboard and typed “hi.” Coincidence? Maybe. But we like to think she really can understand us.
With her bright eyes, gentle heart, and quirky habits, Tabitha will make a wonderful companion for someone ready to give her the love and care she deserves.
