About A Cat Named Zoe

Zoe is a spunky, chatty, sweet girl looking for a loving owner to celebrate her unique personality. She’s very talkative and will see you off at the door when you leave, and greet you at the door when you come home, wanting to hear all about your day! She loves squeezable treats and will show you her appreciation by bringing you a stuffed animal (or two!).

She loves to play with wand toys, but is also independent and enjoys simply relaxing. Zoe loves to be around her people and will sometimes meow to check on you and make sure you’re still near and well. When she decides the time is right, she will snuggle up in your lap or on the couch. She also loves to watch TV, both human and cat shows--birds and squirrels are her favorite!

Zoe is a gorgeous mix of sass and sophistication, with a splash of goofy-ness. She can get stressed when out of her comfort zone and may respond by getting a bit spicy until she's had time to adjust to any changes. Given how sensitive she is, she would love to settle down in a relaxed environment and would do best as an only pet with an experienced cat parent. She also has allergies that can make her itchy, so she’s looking for an adopter who is comfortable giving her allergy meds (luckily, she would do anything for a treat and easily eats up her meds). **Zoe can go home with a 3-month care package of her prescription medications!**
