Story
Hello there! My name is Downy, and I'm a super-sweet, friendly, affectionate, easy-going, inquisitive, petite Seal-Point Snowshoe-Siamese/ DSH mix gal with drop-dead gorgeous sapphire blue eyes who was born in March 2013. I'm an unusually and beautifully marked tricolor -- about half white with Snowshoe/ Siamese taupe patches randomly on my head, neck, and back as well as seal points on my ears, face, and tail. (I'm like a calico but have seal-colored and taupe patches where calicoes have black and orange.) I have the Snowshoe's proverbial inverted 'V' on my nose, and my paws are white. I acquired my name because my fur is silky-soft like Downy fabric softener!
I thrive on attention from adults as well as kids and love to head-butt my humans to spread my pheromones on them! I delight in being petted and even enjoy tummy rubs, which most cats don't tolerate. I'm a lap cat who loves cuddling with my humans. When I'm scratched under my neck or behind my ears, I burst into a loud purr, which sounds like a perking coffeepot.
I adore my foster meowmy and her well-behaved grandsons. They describe me as 'darling' as well as 'personality plus.' Like most Siamese, I'm very vocal and like to "talk" to Foster Meowmy with my raspy voice.
I'm very active and follow my foster meowmy throughout the house, including her bed, just to keep her company. I'm no couch potato because I'm very inquisitive and love to explore all over the house. Instead of batting around my catnip mice and balls, I carry them in my mouth to new surprise locations.
I was adopted as a kitten from Buster's Friends, but my adopter recently surrendered me to a kill-shelter because the house had mold and they had to move out but couldn't take me with them to the temporary quarters. Fortunately I was traced back to Buster's Friends, thanks to my microchip.
I get along great with kids and the other cats in my foster home. Although there are no dogs here, my previous adopters said that I got along with everybody -- even dogs.
I'm such a well-adjusted, amiable, and amendable kitty that I'll fit into almost any household situation. Only thing is, like most Snowshoes, I love people so much that I shouldn't be left alone in the house while you're at work. So I need pretty constant human, canine, or feline companionship to make me happy.
I hope that you'll waste no time arranging to meet me today so I can try out YOUR lap for size. I just may be the constant companion you've been looking for!
