Calista is a beautiful 2-year-old Persian mix with a gentle spirit. She came to Macomb County Animal Control after her previous owner could no longer care for her. Although she's experienced significant changes, Calista is now looking for a calm, understanding family who can give her the time and space she needs to adjust. This sweet girl tends to be shy when encountering new people and environments, thriving best in a quiet home with low traffic. She needs a space where she can destress and gain confidence at her own pace. Once she feels secure, her true playful side will emerge. Calista is best suited for a household with children over the age of 10 who can appreciate her sensitive nature and approach her kindly. While she hasn't lived with dogs, careful introductions will be a must if there are furry companions in her new home. A dedicated safe room is recommended when she first arrives to help her transition smoothly. If you have a peaceful environment, an open heart, and the patience to allow love to blossom at Calista’s pace, you could gain a truly incredible companion. She will also require regular grooming to keep her coat free from painful matting. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
