Peer into the window of the cat room at KCAC and you’ll see Brie, a 1-year-old tortie-mix. Surrendered along with her sister, Gouda, Brie is an extremely sweet young girl that begs for attention, then makes herself at home on your lap.

Brie

Owner-surrendered along with her sister, Gouda, Brie shows a natural-born brave side that her sister seems reticent to explore. She’s curious about other felines in the room and appears to get along with them whenever they come around.

Her last owners made sure she ate well which explains why she is on the chubbier side of “cat-like.” She definitely will benefit from a family that is willing to help her watch her waistline, as well as give her plenty of physical playtime.

If you’re looking for a young cat that fits all categories of “perfect,” then Brie is definitely the feline you need to meet!
