Affectionately known as Cali, a charming 7 (almost 8) year-old calico feline hailing from Chino, CA. Despite being the runt of her litter, Malina has blossomed into a captivating individual with an outgoing disposition. Initially timid in unfamiliar environments, she quickly warms up to people and thrives on affection, making her an exceptional cuddle companion!
She is not one to be bossed around so would not do well with a very alpha-type personality cat or dog but has gotten along with her various feline siblings quite well throughout her life.
Malina was born with a minor heart condition, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), which has been managed with daily medication—a routine she has acclimatized to effortlessly. Regular visits to her cardiologist ensure her health remains stable, although she thrives best in low-stress environments as she ages.
Whether part of a bustling multi-pet household or as the sole feline companion, Malina flourishes when her human is present for playtime and snuggles. Her favorite pastimes include darting after elusive laser beams and basking in the warmth of the sun or any cozy spot she can find!
When it comes to interacting with other cats, Malina initially displays timidity but quickly embraces playful camaraderie. Her endearing quirks include a love for lounging on laps and various perches, showcasing her adaptable and relaxed nature.
Malina's ideal adoptive family prioritizes her comfort and well-being, providing a tranquil and affectionate atmosphere for her to thrive. While she hasn't had extensive exposure to dogs, she tends to be wary of larger breeds initially but may warm up with patience and gentle introductions.
This delightful calico cat is up-to-date on vaccinations, spayed, litter-trained, and microchipped, ready to grace her new home with her unique charm and affectionate presence!
Malina desires a stress-free transition, and a nurturing and loving environment in her new forever home. Contact us at adopt@joyfulpets.com for more information about Malina!
