Cat Of The Week: Boots (Adopt Me)
If Boots could place an ad for her ideal home, it'd be for a quiet place where she can be queen and get lots of pets, and some playtime too. Her hobbies include gazing out the window to watch the birdies, although cat tv will work too! Batting around a furry toy mouse, chasing and catching a feather wand toy. Her guilty pleasure is rolling around in a box full of catnip. No treat bag is safe, she's quite crafty and helps herself! Boots has also mastered a baby gate by contorting her body, she's brilliant! She is not a fan of other cats at all. Dogs are unknown, but overall Boots wants to be the boss!
