Story
Meet Mitzey
From the moment we met Mitzey, she had all of our hearts. Mitzey is a Flame Point Siamese mix with blue eyes, beautiful apricot markings and a super soft striped tail. We have no way of knowing if Mitzey is a purebred Siamese but she definitely has the coloring, coat and even the slightly crossed eyes that can be typical of the breed.
Mitzey has had a tough time of it. This beautiful kitty was found as a kitten with burned paws. After healing, she was adopted but was returned because she has chronic colitis, which can become acute under stress. Once returned to the safety of our shelter, we worked very hard to help her settle in. Mitzey is on a special food that she eats in the morning and night. With her new diet, Mitzey’s colitis is under control and she enjoys playing and hanging out in our community cat room.
This striking beauty loves attention and is such a snuggler. She's actually very hard to photograph because when she sees anyone she just wants to come in for head butts and rubs. She is cat friendly and very sociable. She is ready to find her forever person/family. Mitzey is about a year old. She is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on all vaccines.
Whoever is lucky enough to adopt Mitzey will have to be patient and mindful of Mitzey’s stress levels. Stress can cause a colitis flare and until she understands she is safe and loved she could feel anxious. Once she is settled in, she will need to keep her special diet at least twice a day to keep her healthy and happy, but any other cats in the home can eat the same food Mitzey eats, making feeding time easier.
If looking for an awesome girl, please submit an application for Mitzey online at: www.charlessmithgallhumanesociety.org. Once an application is submitted online, you will receive an email saying your application has been successfully submitted. If you don’t receive this email within 24 hours, please check to make sure all application fields were completed, or feel free to email us at smithgallhumanesociety@windstream.net. All adopters must complete an approval process which involves a reference check with current/recent vet and a brief home visit if located in the immediate area.
We do permit out-of-state adoptions. Adopters MUST come to the shelter to transport their new family member home. We do not ship, nor do we transport them to their new homes. Adoption policies and application procedures are detailed at the shelter website: http://charlessmithgallhumanesociety.org/ under tab All Adoptable Animals. Charles Smithgall Humane Society (CSHS) is a No kill shelter. Animals in our care remain safe with us until adopted. Resident animals are either owner relinquished rescued from area Animal Controls or high kill shelters. The facility usually operates at capacity with a list of animals waiting for space to open.
