My story

Mika was surrendered to us when her previous family thought she was pregnant. Mika was severely underweight and had a huge abdomen. On exam, we knew right away something wasn't right. She was taken to the vet for x-rays and it turned out she had a tumor the size of a basketball. She required surgery right away and recovered amazingly. Most recently, another tumor started to grow, and after further testing it ended up being Soft Tissue Sarcoma. The kindest thing would be to not pursue another surgery but to find her a palliative home where she can spend the rest of her days. Mika has always been extremely protective of her people and space. With people she knows, she is the most loving and cuddly girl. She is fiercely loyal. To those she doesn't trust she can be extremely aggressive and bite. Mika is in need of a home that can manage this behavior and limit her interactions with strangers. Mika does well with dogs after a slow introduction and would do well living with another dog. Mika does amazing with cats. Mika will need a home without any visiting kids. Mika loves to play in the yard with her dog friends, cuddle on the couch and lounge around. She has amazing house manners, loves car rides and even knows how to give hugs to her people.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Mika, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
