My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Mittens is an adorable cat with white paws and soft gray fur. She is a 4 year old rescue who loves attention and is happy sitting on a lap,"making biscuits" and purring. She also enjoys playing with her mouse toy and "talking" to everyone. Her playful personality can be a bit intense at times, so this cat would be happiest in a family without young children or other pets. Mittens is FIV/FLV negative; current on rabies vax; current on feline distemper; spayed, and declawed.

Mittens has had a rough life! Her original owners abandoned her outside to fend for herself with a rough crowd of tomcats. Even worse, they did this AFTER having her spayed and declawed! A Good Samaritan, not realizing she was declawed, fed her outside for years until falling ill with a brain tumor. She then called Cat Zip Alliance to find a permanent indoor home for Mittens. Unfortunately, things do get a little worse. Mittens was fostered by a wonderful couple for almost 5 months but she wasn't an ideal fit due to her possessive personality. Mittens wants lots and lots of love and gets a little jealous when other pets or children take attention away from her :( She wasn't able to be adopted out at the local humane society, either, because she doesn't like cages (who does?) and would get very upset about being put in one. Now, she's back with Cat Zip Alliance, looking for a permanent 1-cat household to love and accept all her quirks!
