My story

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

🐾 Meet Mirabel — Your Fiery, Fabulous Redhead With a Heart of Gold

Mirabel is a stunning orange-and-white beauty with a big personality and an even bigger capacity for love. True to her fiery redhead look, she’s confident, spirited, and absolutely convinced the world revolves around her — and honestly, she’s not wrong.

✨ Her Personality
Mirabel loves her people deeply. Once she feels safe, she happily climbs into your lap for warm, cozy cuddle time. But here’s the catch: cuddling does not automatically mean petting. Sometimes she simply wants closeness without hands, and she’s very good at telling you when she’s had enough. She’s affectionate, expressive, and delightfully opinionated — in the best way.

🎀 Feisty & Fun
Mirabel enjoys playtime and loves batting around ribbon and string toys. She’s curious and engaged, and she shines in a home that respects her boundaries and appreciates her bold personality.

🐈 Her Social Preferences
Mirabel is at her best as the star of the household.
✔️ Should be the only pet
❌ No dogs — hard no
❌ No cats — she’s made it clear she’d prefer not to share her kingdom

She’s a queen, and queens don’t like competition.

🌟 Her Story
Originally adopted from Melissa’s Second Chances in 2022, Mirabel was recently returned through no fault of her own. Her family cared deeply for her; she just needs a home better suited to her needs and personality.

💛 Who She’s Looking For
Mirabel’s ideal adopter is someone who:

- Loves confident, expressive cats
- Understands “cuddle time” doesn’t always mean “pet me endlessly”
- Appreciates clear communication from their feline companion
- Wants a one-and-only queen to adore

If you’re looking for a smart, cuddly, feisty redhead who will make you laugh, keep you company, and rule your home with charm and sass, Mirabel might just be your perfect match.

She’s ready for her second chance — and ready to be adored like the royalty she is. 👑💕

🆕 Mirabel is also eligible for our Foster-to-Adopt program, which means you can take some time to get to know her in your home before finalizing the adoption. It’s a great way to ensure the perfect fit!
