Vanda!

Vanda’s story is one of love and loss. She was deeply bonded to her person, but when he passed away suddenly, she found herself in our foster care.

In foster, Vanda showed just how sweet and social she really is as an only kitty. She loved curling up on the couch beside her humans, happily settling into their laps for companionship and comfort. She followed her foster family around the house, meowing softly for attention and soaking up every bit of affection offered.

 

Her foster describes her as a “lovely cat”—calm, gentle, and deeply connected to her people. Vanda thrives as the only pet and is looking for a one-cat household where she can feel safe and adored. She has so much love to give and will make a wonderful companion for someone who wants a loyal, affectionate friend by their side.
