Willow came to us when her owner sadly passed away, leaving this 5-year-4-month-old grey and white shorthair to navigate a world that's suddenly changed around her. With her naturally sassy character, she's made it quite clear that she has very specific ideas about how life should be lived – and being an indoor lap cat isn't part of that vision.

This independent lady operates entirely on her own terms when it comes to human contact and affection. She's the sort of cat who needs space to be herself rather than fitting into someone else's idea of what a pet should be. Willow will require a generous transition period in any new home as she decides whether you're worthy of her approval.

Willow needs a quiet home where she can maintain her independence and have outdoor access away from busy roads. She's perfect for someone who appreciates cats for their wild, independent nature and understands that the best relationships with some cats are built on mutual respect rather than constant interaction. Simply put, Willow needs to be left to be a cat.
