Rosie

Rosie is a beautiful 8 year old black and orange tortie with lots of personality. She is high energy and loves to play and chase toys and a laser pointer. Rosie likes to spend a lot of the day dozing in a warm, sunny spot or snuggled under a warm blanket and is active in the evenings. She also loves to cuddle in your lap anytime you're sitting down. She usually sleeps on me at night, in the bend of my knees. She is small but feisty and does require extra patience and love with vet visits. We typically have to give her gabapentin prior to vet visits as she becomes extremely anxious and will not allow them to handle her.
