Hi, I'm Aífe! That's pronounced EE-fa and comes from the old Irish word for beauty. I sure think it fits! I came to DITR after I was discovered to be the last kitten in a litter that was already in foster care. My mom dropped me off at a kind woman's home and she made sure I made it back to my litter mates. Now I spend my days lounging around, playing with toys, and snuggling with my foster mom. I LOVE when she brushes my long, beautiful fur, especially since she has to do it often! I really love my foster mom and have become quite attached to her, so I'm looking for a furever family who will love me just as much, or even more! Finding a furever home is important because I need to be in a home where I can get LOTS and LOTS of attention. Someone who is home often would be perfect for me! I get along with the friendly, laid back kitties in my foster home, but I am afraid of the Queen kitty in charge. I'd really like to be the Queen kitty of my own home. My foster mom says I am the sweetest kitty who deserves the best life, could you be the one to bring me home?
Aífe is a very sweet and snuggly cat. She loves to talk and get lots of pets. She does startle easily, so a home WITHOUT small children and dogs is necessary. She does take a little bit of time to be comfortable around new people, but she will be your shadow otherwise! She would be perfect for a single person seeking companionship or for a recent retiree looking to spice up their time at home! She will even sleep in bed with you! Please consider adopting this special girl, she deserves the world!
