SAFE 7/15/18 WATCH HER VIDEO! Madeline is a female spayed domestic shorthair cat that was brought in as an owner surrender.with the reason being too many animals in the home. A volunteer writes: Here is a kitty with a good upbringing and an innate good disposition. I had the good fortune to meet and greet Madeline; rather, she greeted me, coming to the door saying “glad to see you”. This friendly youthful girl is at ease with people; loves gentle petting, strokes on the back, and most of all, chin and cheek rubs as shown in the video. What you don’t see is her lovely, alert face (when not being petted), her curiosity (she lights up!),and cooperative nature. Madeline’s interest was aroused by the wide open space, so she poked her head, shoulders and quite more out the kennel door and was about to take a walk and investigate. Although it behooved me to stop her (not allowed out of kennel) I had to tap her shoulder and gently nudge her back. She readily complied and we resumed the chin rubs. Friendly, curious and loving, Madeline is not too young, and not too old. Should you consider this gracious gal, she will be a boon to your spirits. A feel good kitty!
MADELINE was brought in with several other housemates. She needs a home of her own asap.
