About Athena
Athena is looking for an owner who will keep her company for some of the day whilst she settles in. She would like easy access outside so she can slowly explore her new surroundings when she is ready. She would like to be the only pet though could live with older cat savvy children.
Athena is a wee sweetheart who loves being fussed over by anyone who will give her some attention. She is a friendly girl, though she can have a mischievous and cheeky side. At times, if she becomes overstimulated or feels she isn't getting enough attention, she may give love bites. She doesn't mean any harm, but as a result, she would be best suited to a home with older children who are savvy enough to understand when she would like a little space.
Athena enjoys all the simple pleasures in life, whether that's playing with her toys, rolling around in catnip, or curling up in a cosy bed for a good snooze. With her fun-loving personality, she is sure to make a lovely addition to her new family.
