Wednesday's Waif: Chestnut

Baby it's cold outside. 

Wouldn't you like a cat to snuggle up with, to keep warm?

"Hello, My name is Chestnut. 

I'm currently living in a foster home so I can enjoy living with a family until my forever family comes along. 

My foster Mom says I'm a very special girl. I'm polydactyl on all four feet (that just means I have extra toes), I'm bob-tailed, and I'm a torbie. Foster Mom says I'm full of tortitude! 

I've been a little misunderstood in the past. Foster Mom has spent a lot of time with me so she can figure out the kind of family I need. You see, I have boundaries. 

Not everybody understands that. When I first moved into my foster home, I was nervous. Foster Mom learned that I needed extra time to relax and learn to trust. 

Things are much better now. I enjoy my time with my foster family and love just hanging out with them. An experienced cat owner will give me plenty of time to get to know them and will go slow with me. 

Because of my boundaries, I need to be in a home without children. I need to be an only pet as well. 

I really like Foster Mom, but I'm at my most relaxed with Foster Dad, so Foster Mom thinks I prefer men. I'm not very talkative, but I tend to growl and grumble a lot. 

Because of that, Foster Dad calls me Gretchen the Growldactyl. The growling doesn't necessarily mean I'm upset; it's just how I communicate sometimes. 

When I'm being petted I can purr up a storm, too! If you're looking for a unique cat to share your life, I'd be thrilled to have you come meet me! 

Love, Chestnut"

Chestnut is in a foster home right now, and will be adopted out from there.
She's staying with Harvey over at Sebastian the Sensitive Soul,
and is looking for her forever home, thanks to Allie's Alma mater:
