My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hi, I`m Barbie!

I’m a sweet, spunky little kitten with a whole lot of energy and personality! I`m still figuring out the world, so I’m looking for a home where I can be my playful, curious self—but with some understanding about my unique needs.

I’m a very high-energy girl, so I need lots of toys and things to climb on to keep me entertained. If you have a space where I can run, jump, and explore, I’ll be one happy kitty! However, I do have a tendency to get overstimulated quickly, and when that happens, I need some space to cool off. I don’t always give clear warning signs, so it`s important to know when I need a break.

I’m probably not the best fit for a home with young kids since I can be a little unpredictable when I`m overexcited. I also have a pretty strong personality, so I would do best with an experienced cat family who understands that I can be a bit hot and cold. But don`t worry, once I’m comfortable, I have a super sweet side! I absolutely love attention, and I’ll curl up in your lap and purr away while you shower me with love.

I could potentially live with another cat, but it would need to be someone who can help me learn how to play more gently. I’ve had some issues with rough play in the past, so a calm cat who can show me the ropes would be ideal.

If you’re experienced with feisty kittens like me and can give me the love, attention, and space I need, I’ll repay you with tons of purrs and affection. I may be a little high-maintenance, but I promise I’ll be worth it!
