Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Please note our adoption process starts with our pre-screen. See info below.
We're calling Rosie our miracle kitty! She was found as a very sick stray. The vet determined she had ingested antifreeze, a deadly toxin. She received immediate treatment and has now fully recovered and is ready for her happy ending. Rosie is a very affectionate cat, but when she wants her alone time, she'll let you know. So we think an experienced owner who can read her body language would be best for her.
To meet Rosie, please drop by the Cambridge PetSmart during open hours: Saturday 12-2, Weeknights 6-8. For same-day adoption, please fill out the pre-screen by copying/pasting the following link into your browser: https://bit.ly/3yRGpMD
