Venus

A torti queen with a shy streak and a secretly very smoochy agenda.

At 8 months old, Venus is still figuring out that the world isn't so scary, and once she does, she's all about the love. She might take a little time to warm up (think: mysterious, observing you from a comfy corner like the tiny empress she is), but don't be fooled ... behind that shy exterior is a total sweetheart just waiting to shine.

When Venus decides you're one of her people, get ready, because the headbutts are strong with this one. She's a gentle affection-giver, leaning in for little bonks and quietly soaking up pats like she's been doing it her whole life.

Like many tortis, she's got a bit of that signature personality ... equal parts sass and sweetness, but hers leans heavily toward the soft and loving side once she feels safe. She just needs a home that will give her a little patience at the start, and in return, she'll reward you with those heart-melting moments that feel extra special because you earned them.

The best part? Venus has all the makings of a cat who will transition beautifully into a home-she just needs someone willing to let her settle in at her own pace and bloom into the affectionate, funny little companion she's meant to be.

If you're looking for a gentle soul with a touch of torti charm (and excellent headbutting skills) come down to our North Melbourne location, Venus might just be your perfect match.
