Mariposa

What my friends at OHS say about me:

• If you have a vacant lap, I would be glad to keep it warm!
• Fearful Behavior: I can be worried about new people or new surroundings. I prefer to take things at my own pace and will need to go home to a calm environment.
• I should wear a helmet I head butt so hard.
• Handling Sensitivity: I can be overwhelmed by overhandling, restraint or touch. I may exhibit my discomfort in a variety of ways and will need to go to a cat savvy home.
• I have been known to shower my favorite people with love.
• 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 love to learn and explore! You can use my favorite toys or treats to teach me new things.

The type of home I'm looking for:

• I would flourish in a calm environment and a low-traffic home.
• I may not be the best option for a home with small children.
• It could be with you! Click here to learn about the adoption process.
