I adopted this little weirdo in July, and she spent 6 weeks under the couch. She wouldn’t even come out for tuna and I thought I was going to have a pet litter box. With more patience than I thought I had, she’s now almost a regular cat. Sort of.

She’s 6 years old and no one knows why she has no teeth, but she’s very sweet and makes flying leaps for her feather boa on a stick despite her somewhat unathletic frame. She likes to puke behind the curtains where I won’t find it for several days and track litter into my bed (I thought cats were clean, but they’ve got nothing on tarantulas) but I still love her. Now that she is out enough for some good pics, I’m showing her off!
