My name is Marlowe, and I’m a sweet, affectionate cat, though it takes me a little time and patience to feel comfortable in new surroundings. Once I feel safe, I love cuddling and being petted, especially on my head, chin, and neck—but belly rubs aren’t really my thing. I’m pretty easygoing around other cats and can adapt to living in a multi-cat environment or a solo home, especially if my brother is around. While I don’t form close bonds with other cats at the shelter, I do enjoy sleeping near my brother, and I like having humans nearby when I want some love.

​

I can be shy when I meet new people or am in unfamiliar places, and I might hide at first until I feel safe. Sudden movements and loud noises startle me, so I’d do best in a calm home with older children who are patient and understanding. My favorite spots are high perches and windows, where I can nap and watch the world outside. I’m not too interested in toys or treats, but wet food? Now that’s something I love! I’m most active during feeding times, especially in the mornings and evenings, and otherwise, I’m pretty laid-back and quiet.

​

I’ll let you know what I need—if I’m uncomfortable, I might hiss to show it, but when I’m happy, you’ll hear me purring contentedly.

​

As for my rescue story, I was once a stray, living on the streets and being fed by a kind lady. For a while, that was my life—until one day, I disappeared. No one knew where I had gone or what had happened to me. When I finally returned, I was in really bad shape—weak, sick, and not doing well at all. The lady who had been feeding me saw how much I needed help, and thanks to her, I was taken in for treatment. It took time, patience, and a lot of love, but I fully recovered.

 

Now, I’m here, safe, healthy, and ready to find a forever home where I can start the next chapter of my life.

Marlowe was adopted in April 2025 by one of our LBS Team member.
