This tortoiseshell beauty is Mabel. Since being in care her fosterer has had the chance to discover Mabel’s personality and she  has not shown any aggressive behaviour, but she is timid. She likes having a place to hide where she feels safe, but once she knows you, she will immediately come out of hiding for fuss and maybe even sit on you lap.

Mabel takes a while to warm up to people, but she is now sitting on regular cattery staffs laps, purring away and even drooling when she is very comfy. She has been allowing them to handle her when needed with no problems.

Mabel is a very sweet girl once she trusts you, just need time and patience.

Like many cats, Mabel is not overly keen on people being higher than her, she crouches down and tends to hide, she prefers people being her level. Mabel will sometimes growl at strange noises and go into hiding when unsure, but she can also be quite nosy with reassurance.

Medical issues/ dietary requirements:

Mabel developed cystitis shortly after arrival which was thought to be down to the stress of arriving at the cattery in a new environment. She will need to be kept on urinary wet and dry foods but these are readily available and not overly costly.

The best type of home for Mabel is one where it is all females and it’s quiet, with no other pets but with access to a garden. Mabel has been neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and flea/worm treated. She needs a patient, loving home, but Mabel is worth the time required to ensure that she feels comfortable in her new home. Can you offer this beauty a caring, loving home?
