About Madam

Meet Madam! Madam is an affectionate eleven-year-old Domestic Short Hair residing in Amherst, MA. This sleek black beauty weighs in at a solid 12 pounds and is all about companionship. With her wonderfully chatty personality, she's more like a dog in a cat's body. Whether it’s greeting you at the door or curling up beside you, her presence feels like a warm hug. She loves to converse, sharing her thoughts with a unique vocal flair! This gentle girl flourishes with people around, making her perfect for a family or person who enjoys having a devoted lap cat nearby. Daily petting and brushing keep her happy, but she also has a playful side. Small mouse toys bring out her inner kitten, and she enjoys a good chase with wand toys. Madam is great with children of all ages and has shown her sweet nature around both toddlers and school-aged kids. Strangers are no issue for her; new visitors are simply more friends to meet. While she needs to be the only cat in her new home, her personality shines brightest in a setting where she can soak in attention. Experience with managing diabetes is preferred, as she requires a daily pill mixed in her soft food. She’s spayed, microchipped, and comes with all essentials to make her transition smooth. With a little extra care due to her weak hind legs, it’ll be ideal to have her food, water, and litter box nearby. Are you ready to welcome this sweet, talkative girl into your home? Let’s find out if you could be her ideal match! What are you waiting for? Apply today!
