Meet Squiggles the cat who doesn't always act like a cat

Sit back and be prepared to fall in love with this sassy little feline. Her name is Squiggles and she is sure to give you the giggles. According to her foster, Squiggles is “barely a cat.” So, what other choices are there? Speculations are she is an alien or maybe a “gremlin.” The Humane Society of Elkhart County is still investigating and enjoying every moment of the mystery. Squiggles has crooked pupils that get HUGE when she plays - gremlins have oversized eyes. She has an unusual voice that sounds hilariously “crunchy” when she meows - gremlins also make some strange noises. She also has a habit of happily growling while playing with her toys – gremlins make lots of happy sounds when they are … playing.

She is learning to co-exist with other cats but does need time to adjust. If you have always wanted your very own affectionate
