My story

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

Maple is a sensitive and sweet little cat who is 2-years-old.
Last winter, she lived as a stray in an open garage, until a good Samaritan took her home. Maple's long fur was heavily matted which made her legs get stuck to her body. It was a frightful time for her, and she was very fearful. Her rescuer got her fur shaved off and brought her to the Shelter.
At first, Maple was slow to come out of her shell. She loved to explore rooms in the Shelter and to look out of windows when things were calm and peaceful. Eventually she liked to be petted by people who she knew well and started to play with toys. But now, she greets everybody with a big cat smile on her sweet face, wants to be petted, and even likes her belly rubbed by some of her trusted caretakers!

Maple is a bright and companionable kitty. She loves watching what people are doing and to sit close by. But Maple doesn't like other cats and seems to be afraid of them. She will need to be the only cat in her household.

In her new home, Maple might take a little time to make sure all is safe for her, but she is well worth the patience!
In the right home, Maple will be a gentle, cheerful, loving presence on soft paws. She will remind you every day that kindness is the key to the best things in life.
