Here's what the humans have to say about me:
MJ arrived at Safe Haven on St. Patrick’s Day. She’ll be eight years old later this year, and was promptly given her unusual name. You see, she has a left gloved paw, almost like Michael Jackson except it’s orange, not sequined. If you check out some of the photos below, you’ll see her left paw very clearly.
MJ belonged to a young man who was between homes, and the two of them lived in his car for a bit until he could move in with his mom. And then MJ came to Safe Haven to find a new forever home.
She is quite the character. She has very definite likes and dislikes. Among her favorite things are food, toys, people she likes, and food. And yes, she’s quite a “foodie” and her favorite time of day is breakfast and dinner. She’s a very curious cat, and will check out everything in her environment. She loves being brushed, and her favorite toys are ones that can be used in a good game of fetch. And if there aren’t people around to play with her, she is quite capable of entertaining herself.
What she doesn’t particularly like are other cats, so she’s looking for a new home with a one-cat family. She’s also a little picky about the people she calls her friends. She’s not shy about showing who she likes: if she likes someone, she’s all over that person asking to be petted and loved. So she will be happiest with a cat-savvy family who understands when she wants to play and when she wants to relax by herself. If MJ sounds like a good fit for your family, we hope you’ll call to make an appointment for a “meet and greet.”
