Nilla is a 1‑year‑old black‑and‑white beauty who has already lived through more hardship than any young cat should. She came to us painfully thin and losing hair, but even then, her gentle, cuddly personality shone through. Nothing—not neglect, not discomfort—could dim her sweetness. With steady meals, care, and affection, Nilla has been gaining weight and growing healthier every day. Because of her past extreme weight loss, she’s smaller than most cats her age—about the size of a 9‑month‑old kitten—but she’s healthy, thriving, and ready to continue her journey in a loving forever home. Nilla adores attention, loves to snuggle, and gets along well with other cats. She may be petite, but her heart is huge, and she’s more than ready to share it with a family who will cherish her.
