Needs special attention, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Hello there, my name is Muffin and I am a beautiful 10-year-old female calico. But don't let my age fool you, I am still full of energy and love to play with my spring toys. I have a special routine because I'm diabetic and need to receive insulin twice a day and my diet is strictly monitored to keep me healthy. I am a social butterfly and love to interact with people, although I prefer to be the only furry friend in the house. My laid-back and mellow temperament makes me the perfect companion for a chill and relaxing home.   March 7, 2026, 9:03 am
