About Marguerite

Marguerite was left behind with 20 other cats when her guardian was evicted. They arrived in poor condition, suffering from fleas and ear mites, but have since received treatment and are recovering well. This lovely Calico kitty is understandably shy and takes her time adjusting to new surroundings. She's often found seeking refuge in her hidey spot but appreciates gentle pets and neck rubs. Though she startles easily, Marguerite is expected to flourish in a calm environment once she becomes familiar with her new home. At this moment, we don’t know how she interacts with dogs, other cats, or children. Marguerite may prefer being the only pet, as she likely hasn’t experienced the companionship of a dedicated owner. She might also tolerate older children provided they respect her boundaries and handle her gently. Given all that she's been through, Marguerite is likely looking for a peaceful home where she can bask in the sun and feel secure. Born in September 2023, this sweet girl has many happy years ahead to share with someone special.
