YVONNE – 19430
Safe - 2-18-2018 Manhattan
SAFE 2/18/18 – The foster writes: Yvonne (Binker) is silly, loving, and her antics are sure to keep you amused for hours! Channeling the kitten inside her, Yvonne loves to play, even if that sometimes means waking up in the middle of the night to jump at your feet. when she’s not playing with you or her toys which she very much loves, Yvonne is very much a cuddle bug! She will cuddle on your lap and purr for hours at a time while she’s petted. She’ll even come up to your face for a kiss. She likes to be near you and will follow you from room to room. She is also extremely curious, inspecting everything, before giving it her seal of approval. Although she hid at first for several days, she is now bold and playful and craves attention. Her antics are adorable and her loving ways are irresistible.
