About Maddox
Maddox, often called Maddie, came to the rescue after her owner could no longer care for her. She was a bit skittish at first but warmed up quickly, showing real sweetness and affection when she felt safe. Chin and neck rubs are her favorites, and she’s proven herself to be more of a companion than a playmate. Since arriving, her coat has stayed healthy, and there’s been no sign of the over-grooming that worried her previous owner. Now that Maddox feels secure, she’ll seek out attention from volunteers and enjoys the company of other mellow cats in her space. However, her nature is shy and a bit nervous—she avoids chaos and would not do well with active young children, puppies, or kittens. Maddox is a gentle, non-aggressive cat who prefers a calm environment with patient people. She might enjoy the company of older kids who respect her boundaries and would appreciate her as a snuggly sidekick instead of a high-energy playmate. This girl was born in late June, so she’s a Cancer—no surprise Maddox is so sensitive and affectionate at heart. She’ll need a home that lets her adapt at her own speed, but any patience is rewarded tenfold once she trusts you. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
