Hi, I’m Penelope

Penelope is a sensitive girl who will need a calm and understanding home. She should be introduced in a small launch room and given time to settle before exploring the rest of the house, as large open spaces can easily overwhelm her.
Providing plenty of resources will help Penelope feel secure. Scratch posts, cat trees, and hiding places such as cardboard boxes or cat igloos give her space to climb, rest, and retreat when she needs quiet time.
Like many cats, Penelope has a limit to how much stimulation she can handle. She can become over-stimulated with too much petting, so it's important to watch for signs. When these appear, it's best to end patting and move on to another activity, such as play or enrichment feeding.
Play therapy is recommended to provide an appropriate outlet for her energy and frustration. Penelope would thrive in a home with teenagers who can read basic cat body language and understand when to give her space, helping her feel safe, calm, and happy.
