My story

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

 



Mamma Mia, that's one sweet cat!

Mia is an adorable and energetic young cat ready to find her forever home. She loves the spotlight, but is very good at letting you know when she's ready to go backstage and have some alone time. Her ideal day is spent sleeping, playing with string toys, and her ideal night is spent cuddling and having the zoomies. Mia would thrive in a quiet home that provides her enrichment as well as comfortable places to hide. 

Mia has a bit of a limp due to a fracture which has since healed, but she doesn't let that stop her! Mia is also FIV and FeLV+ positive. Because of this she would thrive as an only cat, could live with other animals, or cohabitate with other calm FeLV+ cats!

How I came to PAWS: Owner Surrender
Animal ID#: A55710


**Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV) is a virus that is specific to cats that attacks and weakens a cat’s immune system. Cats with FeLV can live normal, happy, healthy lives—with a shorter life expectancy than cats without FeLV. In the past, cats with FeLV in shelters were euthanized as soon as they were diagnosed. PAWS takes a different stance: we enable FeLV+ cats to live out their lives in loving homes. For more information feel free to check out the FeLV FAQs we have available on our website!** 


​I am not at the shelter. Please email my foster parent at jasnorman6@gmail.com to learn more about me!
