My story

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

DOB:  11/06/19

 
Our tiny little Mandy Muffin. What a worthy rescue!

Back in November we received a video from a community member who works tirelessly caring for stray cats in her neighborhood. A cat she had been feeding for at least five years (and had been spayed by a TNR group previously) was literally struggling to breathe.

We took immediate action and brought her in, with the help of her caretaker whom she trusted enough to get her into a carrier.

We were not sure initially if she was friendly, but despite being suspicious of new people (which is how she survived outside all these years!), once you gain her trust she is OBSESSED with snuggling!

Mandy’s upper respiratory infection has long since cleared, though she still has an obstruction in her nasal passage. A sedated nasal cavity search did not identify any polyps, and due to the fact that she is THRIVING, the vet did not see a reason to pursue a riskier/more invasive procedure to search again.

So, she sounds a little stuffy, but it does not slow her down. Her favorite pastime is eating wet food! And snuggling! And playing with her toys! And watching cat TV! And sleeping in her plug-in heated bed!

Mandy would prefer her main caretaker to be a female, though she’s finally accepting the presence of a male. She can tune out children’s chaos and continue with snuggles, but is not likely to be friends with them.

She has shared space with another female cat at times and did okay. She is so bonded to her human that she gets a little jealous if she has to share and might chase the other kitty away.

Mandy is a quirky little delight and very petite at only about 6 lbs!

She is ready for a home to call her own, and is so deserving of being spoiled after all she’s been through! Apply to adopt her today.  

 

 

This cat has been combo-tested for Feline Leukemia and FIV, received all age-appropriate vaccinations and is altered.

More about this rescue

G.R.A.S.P. stands for Greece Residents Assisting Stray Pets. GRASP's goal is to give animals, primarily those picked up by Greece Animal Control, a second chance for a safe, happy, and healthy life. Before G.R.A.S.P., Inc. was formed, animals that were not claimed by their owners were routinely euthanized. We also strive to educate the public on the benefits of spay/neuter and the need to tag their pets at all times. G.R.A.S.P., Inc. is a non-profit organization and is completely dependent upon donations from the public.
