About Mara

Mara is a laid-back cat with a unique charm all her own. She's a loving companion who enjoys being held and cuddled in laps while sharing quality time. Interactive play with wand toys is her favorite way to bond, showcasing her playful side.

Mara came to the shelter as a kitten and has learned to use the litter box like a pro through patience and care. She's excited about the idea of finding a forever home alongside her brother Mako, as they make a wonderful bonded pair. Both have cerebellar hypoplasia, which gives them a delightful wobbly movement, adding to their endearing nature. This dynamic duo is ready to fill your home with affection and joy.
