Lyra

Get to know Lyra

Lyra is both sweet and sassy in a mini 6 lb package. Who can blame her? She’s a girl that knows what she wants and needs (back scratches, treats, and meals!) and isn’t afraid to let you know how things should be done to her standards. Her torititude is adorable as she will bat at you (no claws) just to let you know to stop what you’re doing because the boss (Lyra) says no. It takes her a few weeks to warm up but do not doubt that she’s a cuddler at heart. She follows people from room to room craving attention and is happy to sit with you throughout the day. She would do well in a home or cohabitate with another cat. She will just generally keep her distance with other animals but is not aggressive (she just likes her space!). Lyra is allergic to chicken but otherwise, she has a seemingly infinite appetite and will come running when you even attempt to have food (human or cat food) around her. She would make a great addition to a household that loves having a cat full of quirky personality that will make you laugh at all of her tortie antics.

 

I love to pounce on shiny, rattling toys and bat them around the room.  I carry around my favorite mice and stuffed toys like a lion carrying its prey. If you shine a laser in front of me, I will chase it all around the room. I keep trying to catch the laser, but the sneaky thing always escapes! I also love to sit by a sunny window and bask in the sun.

I would do well in a home by myself or with 1-2 other mellow kitties. They just need to give me some space when I am eating, I get a little protective of my food. I like the calm dog I live with. She’s fine because she doesn’t mess with me! The feisty dog at my house is not on my favorites list. He’s got too much energy!

I have been waiting for my forever home and hope to find it soon. Won’t you come meet me and see how amazing I am?
