Regular grooming, including a sanitary shave and paw trims, will help her feel her best.

About Marykate

Marykate is a lively and curious cat who loves to play and explore her surroundings. With a friendly and steady personality, she brings warmth to any room, though she does best without small children due to her shyness. Marykate is deeply bonded to her sister Ashley—they look nearly identical and wish to find a home together. She recently had all her teeth removed due to stomatitis, so she’ll need a diet of wet food going forward. Marykate no longer needs medication and is feeling much better now. Thanks to her incredibly fluffy tail and paws, she and her sister will need a sanitary shave and gentle paw trims every few months to keep them comfortable and clean. She gets along well with other cats and will brighten a home with her gentle, fun-loving company. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
