If you have a quiet home and are looking for a new companion in your life, Terri is the cat for you. This tortoiseshell kitty is rather shy and takes some time and baby steps to adjust to a new home, but once you gain her trust she is warm and affectionate and will greatly enjoy the pleasure of your lap from time to time. She is quiet, gentle and low-maintenance, and initially in a new home, she should be in a small space such as a bathroom room where she can live for the first while and feel safe without feeling overwhelmed., Small children would not be a good match but she does well with other cats. We are not sure about dogs. (CCAR ID: C19-179)
