MISHKA – A1090030
Gone - 9-20-2016 Manhattan
***GONE 09/20/16***MISHKA is a GORGEOUS BROWN AND WHITE 9 year old tabby cat. She lived with lot of other cats, most of who unfortunately were all brought to the shelter because their owner moved to a place where pets aren’t allowed. This poor sweetie has lost her home, her owner and her cat friends and now she’s hoping she doesn’t lose her life as well. MISHKA is on tomorrow’s list to be killed at the shelter if she’s not adopted. It would be a tragic fate for such a sweet cat!! MISHKA is afraid at the shelter, but would make a wonderful pet for an experienced pet home with no children, where she could be reassured that not all humans will abandon her! MISHKA is a true beauty and a sweetheart! She would make an awesome cat friend! Please RESCUE THIS GLORIOUS GIRL TODAY!!!

Behavior Determination: Experienced, no children Mishka tolerates attention and petting but may be fearful or stressed in the shelter, and may be intimidated by small children. She may be a little more independent, and may need time to warm up to his or her new home. She may have some behavioral issues that will need to be addressed in the home. Due to the behaviors seen in the care center, we feel that this cat will do best in a calm, quiet home with experienced cat parents and without children.
