About Maggie

Maggie arrived on a stranger's deck and gave birth to three kittens right there. Complications set in fast, but Maggie and her kittens pulled through with emergency care. Her little ones—Gold, Franki, and Myrrh—have since found homes, and now it's Maggie’s turn. Every bit as petite as some of her own kittens, Maggie is lively, talkative, and likes to curl up with people she trusts. She’s playful and quick to broadcast her opinions, whether she’s following humans around or watching animal documentaries with a level of attention that borders on obsession—she even tries to reach out and touch the wildlife on TV. Maggie warms up as her confidence grows, and she’s shown a bold, curious streak, especially in comfortable surroundings. She also gets along well with other cats and is good with children. Ready for a home that will appreciate her spirit and affectionate nature. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
