Meet Misha! The adoption application can be found here: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ROSE/Cat Misha is currently in Houston, Texas but can be transported to the Northeast, the Pacific Northwest, Colorado, or locations along their route. Misha's Story: Misha was found living in a colony with about 15 cats. Her ear was already notched so someone cared enough to fix her. But upon a closer look, Misha could barely open her mouth, she had severe mouth issues, her fur was missing and she was severely underweight. Her rescuers negotiated with the feeders to surrender Misha to them and after a long 30 days, they finally agree. And thereafter began Misha’s long journey to how you see her now. Her mouth and teeth were in such horrible condition, it took 3 months of tube-feeding and steroids to bring the inflammation down far enough to do dental work. It was a long process, but was all worth it when we see how good Misha looks now. She is playful, loves her toys — plays with it in spurts of energy. She still loves kitten kibble, but also loves her wet pates. She is fine with other cats, tries to make friends, but she is picky. She doesn’t like any cat up in her face and will let them know she likes her space. She loves to be petted and will come to you and ask for it. She is not a lap cat. She does not like being picked up too much, except to lead her to food. She loves scratching things, loves a good basket and bed to curl up in and will lounge all day long until she hears or sees you petting another cat — then she will emerge for affection. Misha will do great in a home with other cats, where you’re not looking for a clingy cat, but one that does seek your affection. Misha is ~6 years old, spayed, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, microchipped, and in great health. She does a great job of keeping her litterbox tidy. All she needs now is her forever home! She has never met a dog. --- ABOUT OUR ADOPTION FEES: Our adoption fees include spay/neuter, vaccinations, microchipping, and transportation costs. Also, when you adopt from ROSES Rescues, you’re doing more than giving your new family member a home. Each adoption fee sponsors a cat on the streets of Houston to get fixed, helping end the cycle of overpopulation in a rough environment. We thank you so much for your contribution to our efforts!
