About Maya
Maya is a really resilient and affectionate cat who's fully adapted to her surroundings despite some challenges. Blind from birth, she was captured from a feral community when she was eight months old, weighing only 4.5 pounds. Now, she's a little over 6 pounds, having undergone an eye removal and spaying. Her ability to navigate the house using touch and sound is impressive. Maya prefers to stay grounded and doesn't like being picked up, which can disorient her. However, she enjoys company, often sitting on the chair beside you, and loves gentle pets—sometimes curling up in your lap. Always clean, she's a pro with her litter box and loves playing with toys designed to attract her attention with sounds and scents. Friendly and engaging, she gets along well with dogs and has a gentle nature. This beautiful black and white tuxedo cat brings so much joy and is truly a treasure.
