Meko

My story

This is Queen Meko, she reason I call her Queen Meko is because her personality is that of a queen or a diva. She is a really independent cat and wants to be pampered. She does like to be groomed but watch out! She might try and bite the brush too. Meko loves all cat toys but especially the springs. Meko doesn't really like to be picked up but allows it for short periods of time. She is not a lap kitty unless you have her favorite snacks. She is a very chill cat and is not very loud unless she is about to get her wet food, that is her favorite! Queen Meko is looking for a new castle with a good view so she can climb up high and look out the window! Meko lives with a large dog in her foster home and would likely do well with other animals with slow proper introductions. Meko participated in our Whiskers of Hope program. Whiskers of Hope: Fostering Cats in Correctional Facilities, in partnership with Oak Park Heights Correctional Facility is designed to give cats a calm, consistent environment to decompress and receive one-on-one care and provide incarcerated individuals with emotional support, a sense of purpose, and the opportunity to give back by fostering animals in need. Each participating individual lives in the mental health unit and has earned the opportunity to be part of this program through positive behavior, leadership, and responsibility. Cats live with their assigned caregiver in a private room, with access to shared enrichment spaces and regular oversight from both facility staff and our team. Each cat receives daily enrichment, love, and individualized care. In turn, the program offers therapeutic benefits to the people involved and helps prepare each cat for a successful adoption.

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