Georgia O’Keefe is more than just a name—she’s a work of art. At 3.5 years old, she’s refined, confident, and carries herself with the grace of someone who knows exactly what she wants… and isn’t afraid to delegate.

She’s a true executive, with a sharp eye for detail (like spotting your hand inching toward her treat jar) and a commanding presence that lets the other cats know who’s boss. While she appreciates companionship, she definitely prefers things on her terms—whether it’s pets, quiet time, or selecting her favorite sunny spot to nap.

If you're looking for a classy, independent lady with just the right mix of affection and authority, Georgia O’Keefe is ready to step into her corner office—right in your home.

Stop in today to meet her! We're open 12-4 pm! 🥰
