Will You Adopt Katie the Cat?

This Maine coon needs a loving home.

My name is Katie and I'm a kind and quite divine, declawed female who wants to tiptoe into your heart.

Like most Maine coon cats, I am intelligent with a gentle personality. Unlike most Maine coons, however, I am a petite girl at just seven pounds. I may be small, but I am smashing with my medium-long hair, tufted ears and paws, yellow-green eyes and amazing fluffy tail.

Loyal to family, I am cautious around strangers. Indeed, your friends may even think I am your imaginary companion because I will make myself scarce when others are around. I will be your little secret. That is because I am more of a peeker than a seeker — a cat who likes to watch, not one who wants to be in the midst of the commotion.

Some might even say I have a tendency for observing life on the sidelines. I enjoy my quiet out-of-the-way spots. Not that I do not have my playful side. I just prefer calm to rowdiness. I am that kind of girl.

Did I mention my size? Of course I did. I just bring it up again to remind you that I will not take up much space in your home. I have a teeny, tiny meow and love to curl up in small places where I feel safe. That said, I would really enjoy the company of other animals, both cats and dogs. In fact, I would be a great cat to add to your household since I am not a troublemaker. The only space I need is the one in your heart.

One final word: I heard that November is "Adopt a Senior Pet Month." I do not know what that has to do with me and why they are profiling me this month. I am not a senior cat at only seven-years-old. Maybe it is because I could be a good friend to your senior cat or dog; or to a senior person; or to a younger person who has a younger cat or dog. Really, I am the best because I will fit in anywhere. Just give me a call so we can meet.

If you are interested in meeting Katie, or any of our other available kittens and cats, or to learn about volunteer and fostering opportunities, contact PAWS at 781-246-6111 or PAWSwakefield@yahoo.com. And you can also meet many of our kittens and cats at our adoption hours every Saturday from 10 a.m.-1 p.m. at VCA Wakefield Animal Hospital and on the first Saturday of the month at the Woburn PETCO from 12:30-3:30 p.m.
