About Missy

Missy is an 8-year-old sweetheart who has been patiently waiting for her forever home. After coming to us as a tiny kitten with a broken pelvis, she has fully healed. This early trauma shaped her gentle nature and her love for calm, cozy spaces. Initially shy, Missy opens up beautifully once she feels safe and trusts you. She’s best suited for a peaceful home with little activity; loud or busy environments can overwhelm her. In a tranquil setting, she thrives, offering quiet affection and companionship. If you can provide the calm she craves, Missy will reward you with gentle love and a soothing presence. She deserves her happy ending, and that might just be with you.
