Female Cat, Domestic Short Hair
Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (Short Coat)
Description:
Beautiful Missy was rescued from a furniture restoration workroom along with her siblings. I took them in as the workroom was closing and they had no place to go. Missy is about 7 months old; she is up to date with her vaccinations, has been de-wormed, spayed, microchipped and is litter box trained. Their mother tested negative for feline Leukemia when they were still nursing. Missy is a stunning dilute tortoiseshell kitty. Her grey stripes are interrupted with beautiful splotches of creamy orange. She is very regal with her black nose, amazing ears and generous long tail. Missy has the sweetest disposition and loves to cuddle up right next to you. She was placed in a prospective adopter's home with instructions that she needed to be kept indoors. They were careless and a little over a day later she got outside and was lost for a week and a half. Missy was finally caught in a trap that I had placed in a neighbor's backyard. I rushed over to pick her up but she had cuts on her face from trying to get out of the trap and was missing two of her front toenails as well. Missy is healing nicely but she was quite traumatized by this experience and so will be guarded until she gets to know you, after which her tender, gentle personality will shine through. Missy is a true treasure, so smart and sweet, she loves to play fetch and is learning to ring a desk bell for treats. If I could keep her with me forever I would but my kitty has a very specialized diet due to illness and so can't have access to any regular cat food. Missy is being cared for by a member of the community.
