Virginia Pine

Hi there! My name is Virginia Pine! My shelter mom calls me Mama, because I came to the shelter with my four little 3 week old babies. I was such a good mama and made sure to feed, clean and love my babies so that one day they could be adopted. And, wouldn't you know, that's exactly what happened! They ALL found AMAZING homes, but now I'm hoping to find my own loving home. I am around 2 years old and am the prettiest Torbie you've ever seen! I'm spayed, vaccinated, microchipped and have tested negative for FeLV and FIV. I was formerly a stray kitty, living outside, so I'm still decompressing from living that life and having to always be in fight or flight mode. I've REALLY made HUGE improvements though. I love to greet my shelter mom at the door whenever she steps foot into the shelter. I want pets so bad that I stand on my hind legs to give you head bops. My shelter mom says it's ok that I don't like to be picked up. Some cats just don't like it. It doesn't mean I'm not friendly or nice, because I'm definitely BOTH of those. No one knows what kind of life I lived prior to coming to the shelter, or what I had to deal with emotionally. I'm allowed to hide when I need to, play when I want, and receive pets when I want. Giving me this freedom is the key to gaining my trust. And boy, once you have my trust, I'm a complete sweetheart! I get along with all the other cats at the shelter. I would prefer a calmer household, just because it may take me some time to acclimate and become comfortable. My shelter mom says one of the most rewarding feelings is when a cat who is a little bit shy starts to trust you. Wouldn't it be amazing if you gave me a loving home for the rest of my life?
