About Ms Nina

Ms Nina has weathered more change than most cats ever will. She lost her original home when her owner, faced with homelessness, moved his many pets into a van. When he passed away, she was taken in by another kind person, only for that situation to also fall apart. Through it all, Ms Nina has remained steady and adaptable. At some point, she fractured her pelvis—though you’d hardly know it aside from needing a special high fiber diet to keep everything working smoothly. She explores the cattery at her own pace, always searching out the most comfortable spot to survey the activities of younger cats. Ms Nina greets every cat and person kindly, handles being picked up with grace, and happily accepts pets, but she’ll usually settle in right beside you rather than on your lap. She’s in surprisingly good shape for her age and circumstances, and she can happily stay at the rescue, but there’s real hope that she’ll find a home where someone will cherish her story and let her finally relax. They’d love to introduce you to her in Dunnigan, CA. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
