Top o the mornin' to ya! Meet Maeve. This Irish lass may just be the most playful kitty you have ever met. The best part of Maeve's day is chasing the string toy with her person. She is also quite content to entertain herself with most any toy followed by a well deserved nap. Prior to coming to Tenth Life, Maeve had very little socialization with people. She is a very sweet and gentle girl, but is extremely timid especially with new people and surroundings. Maeve has gained confidence and made so much progress in her foster home. She now enjoys getting pets and will make a very cute high pitched squeak when she wants them, and will purr and rub her face and body against her foster mom's hand. Maeve is not only beautiful but also has the most soft and silky fur! It will likely take Maeve some time to adjust to a new family and place, so she would do best in a quiet home with a very patient adopter. Playing with Maeve is the absolute best way to bond with her and get her to come out of her shell. Her silly and fun personality is sure to bring endless joy to an adopter. Maeve is not a fan of the resident cat in her foster home. She would probably do best as the only cat in the household, but she may do ok with a cat that will respect her personal space. Maeve has minor GI issues which are managed well with a prescription diet. Maeve would love to finally find her forever home. Because she will likely be timid during a first meeting, we're recommending that potential families meet her for the first time virtually to see her as her most normal self. Apply to meet Maeve today!

Meet Prosciutto! This gorgeous, silky girl is SO special. Her experienced foster parents have never met such a conversational cat with such a large vocabulary (so many different sounds and intonations, all with different meanings). She deserves a person/family that wants to learn her language and appreciates and enjoys her communication style as much as we do. Prosciutto was found on the streets in South City, matted, hungry, and with an untreated ear infection (which is why she has a perma-cauliflower ear that only makes her more adorable). She's now been spayed, vaccinated and vetted, and is ready for her forever home. Prosciutto is a very sensitive and at times anxious soul (not a fan of change or not knowing where her person is). She is a very gentle cat, and has never shown any signs of aggression. She LOVES all women/femmes and will relax, hang out, accept and ask for love, and bond pretty quickly. She has also done well with smaller, quieter men. She was anxious/scared/hiding, but did OK with gentle and quiet children that understood cat body language and consent (plus treats...she loves 'em!). She's intimidated by deep/loud male voices and larger/taller male bodies, and is still jumpy with her amazing cat foster dad, just because he's a bigger, louder guy. She's always more relaxed when it's only the ladies at home. Due to her separation anxiety, we believe she'd do best with constant or near-constant loving companionship, whether in human or animal form. She is not a lap cat, but requires love, pets and snuggles throughout the day, and always wants to be close to her person/people. She is just starting to figure out how to play and is mostly interested in strings and string wand toys at this time. She is a litter box and scratching post champ! It seems she may have been raised around dogs based on some of her behaviors, and she has shown interest in our outdoor feral cat that visits, dogs walking past our house, and kitten and cat videos. I think she might do well with other pets as long as they are relatively calm and gentle. She could potentially be an amazing kitten foster mama! There's so much more to say, but trust us, this girl is one of a kind. If you think Prosciutto could be your perfect forever family member, we'd love for you to meet! www.tenthlifecats.org/adopt
