Athena is a cuddlebug princess. She's a7 year svelte old grey tabby with little white gloves and bib. She is shy with new people - but once she gets used to you, she will follow you around the house day and night. She loves petting, cuddling, and chilling. She's always lived indoors and is properly house trained. She has a brother Harley (in pic) who is also up for adoption! With that being said, Athena is a skiddish cat. When she's startled, she hides. While she has never once hurt me, she will hiss if you try to pick her up without her permission, and it can be a chore to get her into a carrier. As a first time cat owner, I managed just fine, all things considered. I prefer to be upfront. Athena is incredibly loving and safe, but she's not the cat you're looking for to play with your kids, as she is easily scared. Again, even when scared, she has never attacked me, she'll just find a good hiding spot. She's given me SO much in our time together; I hope to find her a loving home"
