Amiga

Amiga is a sweet, shy kitty who is hoping to find her perfect home. Amiga came to us from a hoarding situation and within days, gave birth to a litter of kittens. She was a very attentive mom and her kittens all grew up and got adopted. Now it's Amiga's turn. Poor Amiga grew up in a situation where she wasn't treated very well by people, so she is very leery of folks she doesn't know. During her time with us, she has been with a few different foster homes and has acted differently in each one. In one foster home she was quite friendly and would seek out attention, especially at dinner time. In another, Chiquita didn't want to be pet, but she was perfectly comfortable being near her foster and interacting with him. In another, she was leery about being pet but would allow it sometimes. It's a bit tough to know how Amiga will interact with people, until she gets used to them. Her ideal home will be with a quiet, gentle, cat-savvy person who can give Amiga love while moving at her pace. Having grown up in an environment with a lot of other cats around, Amiga is comfortable being in groups. Therefore, we are hoping to find a home for Amiga where she'll either be adopted with one of her friends (Chiquita or Pearl) or where there will be other cats. Amiga, Pearl and Chiquita were all rescued at the same time and have been living together for several months. They get along well and would be happy to be in the same home. However, they are not so bonded that they can't be separated. Amiga would also do well in a home with a friendly cat that wants to be her friend and show her how to trust. Amiga is not comfortable with dogs or children. If you have room in your heart for a pair of kitties, or if you have a cat at home who would like a companion, please consider adopting Amiga. She will take a little while to warm up, but will be a great addition once she's comfortable.
