Meet PeopleCats of TopTropicals. Cat of the Day: Independent Paisley
Paisley is an independent cat that prefers to spend her time alone. She
is Snitch's sister, both of them came to us two years ago from our
co-worker Cindy (Purry's Mom). Even though Paisley is the smallest of Kristi's inside PeopleCats, she will make sure no food is wasted and finishes the other cats' food after they leave their bowls. She enjoys catching lizards when she gets outside time on the porch. Her excellent hunting skills would make her a great outdoor cat, but we are afraid she will become bird prey due to her small size.
Paisley likes hanging with the other cats if there's a rug involved!

Meet PeopleCats of TopTropicals: Paisley
Paisley is a cherished cat who joined us thanks to one of our employees, Cindy, and has since become part of the family. Known for her affectionate personality, Paisley spends her mornings wandering through the nursery, happily greeting staff and visitors alike. She’s easy to spot by her striking mix of brown and black patterns. When the day grows warm, Paisley heads indoors to help answer phones before curling up for a cozy afternoon nap.
