My story

sweet, a little sassy but gentle, loves to be around you. Mama Mississippi was left behind when my cousins neighbor moved. She had two kittens with her, we trapped her and her kittens, ive had them since may, got them all fixed and shots and microchipped. She’s been healthy since ive had her, she’s great about the litter box. Ive been trying to find happy homes but havent had any luck. She’s fine with her two grown up kittens but she doesnt seem to like my cats which is why im giving her up. No big fights, im comfortable leaving her around the other cats, but my cats dont feel relaxed around her. I want them all to have a calm and peaceful home. So i think it’s best for her to be rehomed rather than staying with me. She’s pretty calm, loves to sit up in high spots and sunbath in windows. She’s often happy just curled up near me and will sleep on my bed with me at night. Hugs are not her favorite but she likes forehead kisses, and she loves chin scratches. Lots of love to share.

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