Urgent Plea: Foster or Adopt Maize, a Special Kitty in Need (Metro Atlanta area Only) Meet Maize – A Young, Semi-Feral Kitty Seeking a Loving Home Maize is a beautiful kitty who was rescued from a neighborhood overwhelmed with stray and feral cats. Despite the challenges, Maize was successfully trapped and brought to a vet immediately for testing, vaccines, spaying, and microchipping. She was severely matted and underweight, likely having to fight and scrounge for food. Current Situation: Maize has been in a foster home for the past five months, where she has flourished. Her fur has grown back beautifully, showcasing her long tabby coloring. Although she remains timid, she is far from "wild." Maize prefers not to be picked up, but she is quite easy to care for. Unfortunately, due to changes in the foster home’s life circumstances, Maize needs to find a new home by September 30, 2024. We urgently need a special person to foster or adopt her. Why Maize Needs You: Maize is still on her journey to becoming fully socialized. She needs a patient and understanding individual who can respect her boundaries and help her continue to feel safe and loved. With time and care, many semi-feral cats like Maize have successfully adapted to loving homes. It just takes patience and love! Living Arrangements: Maize would do best in a cat-only household without dogs or young children. Setting her up in a “kitty house” (like this one) where she can be exposed to people in the household can help her adjust. Benefits of Another Cat: Having another cat in the home could be beneficial for Maize, as seen in the success story of "Grey" in the YouTube video. We Need Your Help! We have no other options for Maize and are relying on someone special to open their heart and home to this deserving kitty. Please consider giving Maize the chance she deserves. Contact Information: If you are interested in fostering or adopting Maize, please email [email protected]. Thank you for your kindness and consideration.
