Livia is a Lap Cat – Lite Rock Pet of the Week

Every Thursday morning at 7:10am on the Lite Rock Morning Show, the Humane Society of Ocean City introduces the new Lite Rock Pet of the Week.

If you are thinking about adding a pet to your family, please consider adopting from the Humane Society of Ocean City, a no-kill shelter recognized as one of the nation’s top ten animal shelters.

This week we met Livia the cat...

Here's some information on Livia from the Humane Society of Ocean City...

"Livia was found after being dumped in a feral cat colony. She was not feral and would run up to the caregiver every chance she had looking for a way out of there.

We estimate she is about 8 years of age, but that is just an educated guess. She is very much a lap cat. If given a chance she will jump on your shoulders so her adopter has to be prepared for that.

Livia does fine with other cats but would be just as happy by herself. She does okay with dogs that aren't in her face all the time. Due to her jumping on shoulders she shouldn't go to a home with younger kids."
