Mavis

What my friends at OHS say about me:

• I may be a mature lady, but I have a young spirit! I can't wait to show my new family how playful I am!
• Give me Churu treats and pets and you will be my new favorite person.
• Brace yourself! I lean super hard into pets and I might just flop over if you take your hands off me.
• I have been described as "aggressively affectionate" because I headbutt so hard and demand all of your attention.
• Looking for a conversation partner? I'm quite chatty!
• Caution: I will steal your heart!
• Overstimulation: I enjoy interacting with people, but petting can easily become overwhelming and unpleasant for me. I may exhibit my discomfort in a variety of ways, including biting, and need an owner who pays close attention to my body language.
• I guess you could say I'm pretty "down-to-earth" - I like my feet on the floor! I can be sensitive to being picked up and held.
• I am deaf and may need extra care and training while getting settled into my new home and family.

The type of home I'm looking for:

• I would prefer to be the only cat in the home. If I do go to a home with resident cats, slow introductions and having my own space will be important for me to adjust.
• I am not for the first time cat owner. Someone very familiar with feline body language is a must for me.
• It could be with you! Click here to learn about the adoption process.
