Hello everybody! I'm andrew, I live just in between LA and Orange County in the San Gabriel Valley, I just turned 19 a month or so ago and for christmas after months of begging my parents allowed me to adopt a cat.


I decided to adopt a young cat instead of a kitten because I always feel bad for the older cats at the shelters. I even felt terrible taking my 7 mo. old away by herself from the rescue but I hope someday I can go back and get another but that might have to be when I live on my own.

My kitty is a toirtoise haired/shelled female, she is very well behaved but incredibly hyper! She is a sweetheart though and has been so well behaved so far so I hope it continues, I just hope she stops driving me crazy at night!

Hello & welcome to the forum. Your little girl is just being a kitten. She should settle down in the next few months.
Look forward to hearing more about her & see pics.
