Laverne

Laverne is the fourth-oldest cat in the house. Before she began living in the house, she had several litters of children with one or more male cats. When she became pregnant and we feared she would be unable to survive the winter behind Grande's, we brought her into our home as a pet on February 28, 2015. She had her litter of kittens on March 20, 2015, which included Mr. Gloves, Mindy, and the now-deceased Zach Lavine. When first brought into the house, Laverne was very unfriendly and apprehensive, often scratching those who tried to pet her. Now, though she can still be skittish sometimes, she is one of the most well-liked cats in the house and is very friendly to those who pet her. She has a southern sister, Taverne, who lives in Austin, Texas.
