Tanya arrived at the rescue with her littermates after being abandoned on a lonely gravel road in the dead of winter. The first thing that stands out are her striking eyes and crisp tuxedo markings—a real attention-grabber when she wants it, though she’s just as happy curling up quietly out of the limelight. Tanya’s a gentle and good-natured kitten, already showing a fondness for people and handling life’s bumps with a calm spirit. At around nine months old, she’s still got her playful moments but will gladly lean into affection or simply watch the world from her spot. She is house trained and has been well cared for here in Le Mars, IA. Her initial rough start doesn’t define her; she’s clearly resilient and ready to settle into a home where she will be loved and appreciated. Tanya gets along well in most environments, thanks to her adaptable nature. Click apply to start the adoption process.
