Lydia will have all her toys, treats, grooming supplies, cat tower (if wanted), cat beds (including a window bed she loves to sunbathe in), litter box, extra litter (if I have any at the time of sale/adoption), food, food dish, water fountain, extra filters, and anything else I cannot think of right now.
If some supplies aren’t wanted I will keep them and donate somewhere.
Lydia is much less motivated by food than her sister Allison. She really just wants all the cuddles and pets. She loves loving.
She loves wheatgrass so if you grow any or find any at a store, she will nibble the heck out of it. She loves tuna water (like from a can of tuna) and so I will usually give her and her sister the water and some bits of tuna as a rare treat.
Like I said above, she loves all the scratches and pets but she usually prefers gentler pets (her sister can handle more when she’s used to you). Like other cats, she will tell you when she’s had enough usually by running away or possibly by smacking your hand away, but that’s usually only if you’re being too aggressive with the petting. She typically just LOVES to play and cuddle with you until she gets tired and will fall asleep on you if you let her. She will meow in conversation if you meow at her.
She will eat catnip up like crazy and roll around in it. She loves it! She does get slightly defensive of her catnip, so when she has it I will typically leave her to enjoy it without my hindrance.
Both her and Allison will attack and hunt laser dots.
She LOVES laying on laps, and if you sit down you better expect her to come running up to you because she thinks it’s nap time on your lap, especially if you have a blanket on. Both her and her sister will definitely crawl under the blanket to nap.
Both Lydia and Allison are nervous around new people for a while but when they warm up to you they love you so so much.
They don’t really warm up to other cats that I’ve noticed. They’ve been in a house with a cat for 6+ months and they don’t get along yet. They will hiss at each other (either Lydia or the other cat start the “fight”) but that’s the only experience with other animals they’ve had (outside of squirrels and birds they see from the window). I’m not sure about how they’d be with dogs. My guess is nervous. They do have all their claws so that is something to keep in mind.
Some other side notes:
Lydia has had her shots but has not had updates on shots in 2 years. If I find the paperwork I’ll know exactly what she’d need but I believe it’s just the rabies booster that she needs.
She does wear a collar with a bell and does not try to take it off.
She is bonded with her sister Allison so I will only let them find a home together. They cannot be split apart. They have such a beautiful sisterly bond.
