Mitzi is a sweet beautiful girl who came to HART as a pregnant stray. Sadly, two of her four babies didn't survive. As fate would have it, twice the following week a newborn orphaned kitten was found and in need of a mother. Mitzi adopted each one, immediately taking them under her care, nursing and loving them along with her others. Mitzi was a very good, protective mother to her kittens.
The babies grew up and Mitzi's mommy responsibilities ended. An empty nester at a young age, Mitzi has been able to "find herself" and "come into her own." Her outgoing, playful personality has developed and she now has the time to enjoy her newfound hobbies of bird watching and sunbathing.
Mitzi has a great appreciation for naps, but also loves to keep in shape by playing floor tennis with fluff & plastic golf balls. She enjoys tossing small pieces of paper in the air and jogging through the house with her toy mouse. Her favorite upper body exercise is batting at strings and ribbons.
Mitzi sometimes gets a little too wound up when playing with humans and nips at them. At times she gets frustrated by not being able to find her voice and ends up nipping at her foster mom's legs to communicate the impending catastrophe of an empty food bowl. Mitzi has been advised on more appropriate ways to have her needs met and is making attempts at self-improvement on these matters.
Mitzi enjoys human company without being demanding. She gives her people warm "Hello" and "Good morning" greetings. She loves to have her face and head petted, but not so much on her sides. She is a very grounded girl. She's okay being picked up, just not for too long. She seems to prefer her feet on the ground and can usually be found in the same room as her human, napping on the floor nearby. She occasionally will sleep on a chair, couch or coffee table but most often, a throw rug on the floor is her preference!! Such an unusual cat!!! She must have read "Miss Manners" because she does not get up on counters or dining tables in her foster mom's house.
Mitzi has excellent litter box etiquette with absolutely no accidents.
At Petsmart she was calm and unbothered next to other cats and hearing barking dogs. Mitzi would probably enjoy the company of a non-dominate feline friend, but she is currently happy with her single status.
Mitzi is a sweet cat who was a loving mother to her babies. She eagerly rescued and adopted two orphaned kittens. Now she's the one eagerly waiting to be adopted into a loving home. Can you please find room for her?
