Utah kitty in need of a home is both 'confident' and 'chill' — and looking for a family to love

Abeona, an 8-year-old cat living at the Best Friends Animal Society's shelter in Salt Lake City, Utah, is in need of a loving home where she can receive chin and ear scratches — on her terms. 

The female dilute calico/tortoiseshell medium-haired cat came to Best Friends from another animal shelter in Utah back in March. 

"This confident, chill kitty likes soft pillows and blankets to rest her head," Best Friends Animal Society told Fox News Digital.

While she "loves chin and ear scratches," she does not like "coddling or being smothered with kisses," said the shelter.

The cat knows how to express her limits. 

"She will politely push your hand away if she's had enough petting," said the shelter.

While not the most hands-on kitty, Abeona is still able to show affection in her own way.

"Abeona loves to ‘boop’ your nose to greet you and rubs her head on you to show her love," said the shelter. 

"When it's time for food, Abeona will meow to show her excitement," it also noted, adding that she can be "very vocal." 

Additionally, Abeona loves to play.

Former Disney World worker took hundreds of 'upskirt' videos of unsuspecting women for years: Police

A former Walt Disney World Hollywood Studios employee in Florida was arrested after a security guard witnessed him recording an "upskirt" video of an 18-year-old female guest at the Star Wars-themed retail store where he worked, police say. 

Jorge Diaz Vega, 26, was arrested on March 31, after he admitted to taking hundreds of videos up the skirts and dresses of unsuspecting women at Walt Disney World's Hollywood Studios for six years, according to the arrest affidavit. 

Diaz Vega told deputies he had over 500 videos on his phone, which he said he recorded as a "guilty pleasure" for his own sexual gratification, since "it is hard to find them online," the affidavit states.

The cast member reported Diaz Vega, and security officers later informed the young girl that someone had been caught taking a picture under her dress at the lightsaber shop, according to an arrest report.

The Kissimmee, Florida resident was booked into the Orange County Jail and charged with third-degree felony video voyeurism for recording female guests without their knowledge.
