Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Magnolia. Mitted Tabby & white Maine Coon mix. Born approximately 4/1/2012.
Regular adoption fee: see below
Magnolia is a very pretty kitten. She has lovely classic tabby markings
that contrast nicely with her white front bib and boots on all four
feet. She is as friendly girl who gets along with other kitties. We're
not sure how she does with dogs. She has had a small injury to her tail,
the tip of it is slightly crooked. You can't see it but you can feel it.
We hope someone hasn't been breaking tails on kittens on purpose. That
would be awful. It's hard to see how pretty Miss M will be since she's
in her scraggly teenage phase and has recently been spayed. She was
quite thin when we got her and it's been fun to watch her coat grow back
and see how she develops and blossoms as she gains weight.
The cutest thing happened with Magnolia. She has been such a quiet well
behaved Southern Belle, but after her photo shoot she began to feel very
important. All of a sudden she started racing around batting at ankles
and playing with the feather toys. She knows she is a beautiful kitten
worthy of finding a fabulous home and has really over come some of her
initial reserve.
There is a possibility that she is Malcom's sister but we're not sure.
They were brought to the shelter the same day, look similar and both
have the little tail breaks. She gets along with Malcom and also her
best buddy is Midnight.
Email Ellen@purebredsplus.org or call (707)592-8770. Fostered in
Vacaville. Magnolia's foster mom works long hours when she can't talk on
the phone. Email is the best way to reach her.
NOTE: Magnolia is what we call a ""Puffer": a cat with the coat quality,
facial structure, and feathering or tufting on the ears that distinguish
a Maine Coon or Norwegian Forest cat. Is Magnolia a purebred cat? She
might well be: we do find purebred cats in shelters. She could also be a
Maine Coon mix. Maine Coons are among the most popular breeds of cat,
and unfortunately, some of the same people who don't believe in spaying
and neutering also believe a cat should be allowed to roam outside. As a
result--regrettably--we find homeless Maine Coon kittens and mixes in
shelters quite often.
If you feel you need a guarantee that your kitten is purebred, then you
should contact a respectable breeder and buy a purebred kitten. If what
you want is to know how your cat will look as an adult--for example, if
you want to be sure that he or she will weigh 15 pounds or
more--consider adopting a young adult from the PPCR Maine Coon page.
Then, even if the cat you adopt isn't quite fully grown--cats of large
breeds mature slowly, often not until the age of 3 or 4--you will have a
good basis for predicting its eventual size, and other breed-specific
traits, such as personality, will already be apparent.
