Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hey guys! My name is Mia. I had a rough start to life. You see, I was abandoned in the wild outdoors. I didn't really know how to fend for myself, and I was freezing, so I climbed up under the hood of a car and curled up on an engine to keep warm. I wish I had known what a terrible idea that was. My tail got caught in the engine, and it was severely injured before I was able to get free. Luckily, some wonderful volunteers rescued me and rushed me to the vet, so I could be treated. They had to amputate part of my tail, but I'll be ok now.
I got to recover in an awesome foster home. It was my very first indoor home, and I can't even begin to explain how great it has been. I get to be warm all the time. I get food whenever I want it, without having to search for it on my own. And the best part - I get all the pets, belly rubs and snuggles I want! I can't wait to find a forever home, especially now that I know how great they can be!
I may look a little different than the other kitties now, but I'm still an awesome girl, and I think I would make a great addition to any family. Do you have room in your home and your heart for a sweet girl like me?
If you'd like to meet me, please email cats@henricohumane.org to setup a visit. Don't forget to tell them you want to meet Mia!
If you're not sure which cat you're interested in or are just beginning to search for a companion, our adoption coordinators can help! Just fill out a short questionnaire at: www.henricohumane.org/adopt/cat-adoption-questionnaire/ that will help us match you with our wonderful cats then visit us at our Adoption Stand at West Broad Petco (next to Trader Joe's) every Saturday from 11:00 to 3:00.
