Happy Holidays! Winter came early this year & so did the cold & snow. We desperately need to make room to get even MORE Moms, kittens and other cats in from the freezing temps & get them fixed, so they don't have to suffer. We get multiple calls for help everyday but can only help more when more we have get homes. Please consider adopting! And tell your friend to adopt too! Our adoption rates have been down so we are hoping everyone wants to give a kitty a home this year! We still have lots of kittens & some of our older cats are hoping for a Christmas miracle...a home! Remember, adopting saves TWO lives! Adopting one cat will free up a cage so we can help another. Together we can provide a wonderful holiday season for cats & kittens by getting them homes!! The kitties thank you too! This is Miso! Miso is a domestic short haired grey tabby, spayed female, up to date on her shots and approximately 2 years old. Vivian is available for adoption to be an indoor ONLY cat from Griffith Animal Control/Treasured Friends Rescue in Northwest Indiana. Hello, I'm Miso! I'm one of the many mama cats who was helped by so many kind people this year during a very busy kitten season. I don't know how I would have taken care of myself, let alone all my kittens if I was still outside! Somehow my kittens and I hit the kitty lottery and we are thriving now! My sweet babies are older and learning how to be brave on their own and some have even found homes already! Now it's finally my time to find a forever home! I know I've been lucky so far, and I hope my good luck holds out until I find my forever home! I'm a sweet and friendly girl, and trust me, I have a lifetime of purrs ready for my person or family. All the people at shelter are amazing, but what I truly dream of is a comfy couch, a window for sunbathing, and a person (or family!) to call my very own! I'm still a kitten at heart—and now that my mom duties are wrapped up (and I won't be a mom ever again!) I'm ready to play and have fun! I can't wait to spend my days chasing feather wands and demonstrating my expert pouncing skills on toy mice in my new home! I know I can be the perfect blend of fun and affection for someone. When I'm done playing, I want to be the ultimate snuggle expert next to my favorite human. If you choose me, I promise to shower you with soft head bumps and rumbling purrs. All I need is a little patience and a lifetime of love to blossom into your absolute best friend. If you're looking for a playful, sweet, and deserving girl to brighten your life, please come meet me! I'm generally good with other calm kitties (with slow introductions, of course) and would likely do best with older kids. Probably no dogs though. I'm ready to trade my cage for a cozy bed, my shelter friends for a loving family, and my days of waiting for a lifetime of happiness with you! If you're looking for an older kitty with a little spunk, please consider Miso! She would love to meet you! Please call 219-922-1766 and leave a message to set up a meet and greet. Also, please fill out an adoption application, which can be found online at TreasuredFriendsRescue.org or through the link on our Petfinder profile.(scroll all the way to the bottom for the link to the application!) **************************************** Griffith Animal Control, in partnership with Treasured Friends Animal Rescue believes in giving kitties that others wouldn't give a chance, a helping hand at getting a forever home. Our volunteers work with shy and/or unsocialized kitties everyday to gain their trust to show them they are safe and no one will hurt them. However, when the kitties go to a new home, some will require extra time to get used to new surroundings and different people. Please consider giving a kittie who might need a little time to get used to a new home, a chance. This is a serious commitment and it sets the kitties back in their level of trust if they are given up after a few weeks or months. We are always here to help with any questions Please, only apply if you are an experienced cat owner or are willing to provide patience and good forever home. Thank you!
