With Irene, you get the best of both worlds of cat companionship: She knows how to entertain herself, but she’s also silly and sweet! In fact, her foster mom’s favorite thing about her is “how self-assured she is,” despite still being just a little thing. “Irene is her own kitten. If anyone is going to be off doing her own thing, it is Irene.” But even Miss Independent needs petting and cuddling from time to time – just when she’s ready for it. In the meantime, her people can enjoy watching her strike out to explore the house with adorable confidence, or find just the right toy for some rambunctious fun. “She likes to play but is just as happy sitting and being petted. She is going to be such a great companion when she gets adopted.”
