About Mona

Mona’s heavy-lidded eyes always look a little sad, but her real story is one of resilience and quiet gratitude. After a tough start in life, she found safety in a cared-for colony and gradually revealed her affectionate, loving nature. Mona adores being held, cuddling up, and soaking in every bit of affection she can get from her humans. She’s also smart and quickly figures out how to keep herself entertained—just show her a ball track and watch her go. While Mona isn't crazy about other cats, she coexists with them just fine and genuinely enjoys the company of dogs, doting especially on her foster’s pup. Her ideal home is with someone who appreciates a quieter, affectionate cat who may always seem a little wistful. Mona would love to be kept strictly indoors and will likely thrive as either a solo cat, or in a home with a gentle dog. Her past isn’t forgotten, but Mona’s ready for a better future. Your kindness could be the change she's been waiting for. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
