About Mayo

Mayo is a playful and affectionate kitten, always on the move with her favorite toys until she's ready to settle in for some cozy cuddles. Her days are spent wrestling with her brother, lounging on the couch, and keeping a close eye on the TV, happily responding to every flicker and sound. Mayo handles friendly dogs without fuss and fits right in with other cats, showing a laid-back attitude that belies her wrestling prowess. She grew up in a foster environment alongside kids, cats, and dogs after being dropped off at a shelter as a tiny kitten. Now, she's fixed, microchipped, up to date on core vaccines, and has tested negative for both Feline Leukemia and FIV. With medium energy and a love of both play and chill time, Mayo adapts easily to family routines. She’s one of those rare kittens who feels at home almost anywhere—couch, bed, or playroom. By the way, Mayo is an Aries—full of spunk and a quick recovery artist, never one to back down from a fun challenge. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
