Missy came to Safe Haven after being trapped with her friend Mel, spending over three years with volunteers who coaxed her out of her shell. She started off wary of people but has grown to enjoy gentle pets, brushing, and quiet attention from those she trusts. Even now, Missy prefers homes that move at her pace—a tranquil place without young kids, ideally with a calm resident cat to keep her company. She has a special bond with Mel, and they'd love to be adopted together, though Missy is ready to open her world to new people on her own if needed. She responds best to folks who understand that trust is built over time. Patient adopters will see her true personality shine through as she relaxes and makes a sunny window her favorite spot. If you appreciate subtle progress and the reward of seeing a timid cat settle in, Missy could be a great fit for you. Ready to meet her? Lets make it official, apply to adopt!
