Candy’s family recently lost their housing. Which meant that Candy and her sisters Luna and Tyra lost their homes as well.

Candy is curious and warms up to humans quickly. She’s an agile mountain climber and likes to be up high so she can observe what’s going on.

As a calico, Candy does exhibit the typical “edgy” calico behavior (she’s kinda busy and very, very sure of what she wants and when she wants it).

One of her sisters (Luna) is polydactyl. That’s probably why Candy is very adept with her front paws and enjoys opening cupboard doors. In addition, Candy is an Olympic leaper. Get her going with a Cat Charmer toy and she’ll arc five to six feet into the air to follow it!

Candy has “don’t touch me” issues with other cats. Hissing/low growling is how she handles it. She’s very companionable around humans, however. And her every-day antics are pretty amusing.

Candy likes the diva role and would be delighted to be an only cat. She could, however, be one of two.

Candy likes—being told how sleek she is; mountain climbing; playing with the Cat Charmer toy; chasing balls and playing soccer; playing in cardboard boxes; disappearing into cupboards

She dislikes—cats who get too close to her; having to go back to her cage after being out most of the day in the Clinic’s surgery room.
