Frankie is still enough of a kitten that her purrsonality, like her body, is still under construction. Her mom is a cared-for (and now spayed) semi-feral cat in Coralville.

When Frankie lived in forstercare with her brother Cowboy, he was boss and made most of the decisions. She was the shy sister, but now that Cowboy has a home, Frankie has gained confidence.

She’s more of a mountain climber than a cave dweller, tolerant of dogs, and fine with children. Frankie is also very flexible and adaptable to change. She likes to relax (which isn’t a common behavior, yet) on her caregiver’s chest, so Frankie’s calm, TV-watching potential is great.

One of Frankie’s favorite rituals is hanging around with her Uncle Ernie (a particularly avuncular cat in her household). She is not a bitey kitty.

Frankie likes—toys!; playing with her buddies, Tinker and Uncle Ernie; toys!; hugs; toys!

She dislikes—restraint

Frankie will do best with an alpha cat as a companion.
