MANCHESTER, CT — Manchester Animal Control is hoping to find a permanent home for Cubby, a senior cat described as affectionate, sweet and happiest when curled up beside someone.

Although Cubby may initially look grumpy, her personality tells a different story. Animal Control officials say she loves attention and will actively seek out affection, often licking, giving gentle love bites and making biscuits on her favorite people.

Cubby is spayed and enjoys being close to people. She is looking for a home where she can settle into a comfortable routine and spend her days relaxing alongside her favorite person.

Her previous living situation was less predictable. Cubby formerly lived in a vehicle, meaning she experienced life without the stability and consistency that cats need, according to Animal Control.

Officials said she may need a few days to adjust to a new environment but believe she will reward a patient adopter with plenty of affection.

Cubby would do best in a quieter, dog-free home. She has previously lived with two other cats.

Animal Control officials noted that senior pets can make especially affectionate companions, often preferring a calm environment and the opportunity to spend time with their owners.

Those interested in meeting Cubby can submit an adoption application through Manchester Animal Control's online application.

The department is hoping to find someone willing to give Cubby the stable, loving home she deserves.
