My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet our tasty little treat, Muffin! Like her name might imply, Muffin is a very sweet girl. She’s very talkative – she’d love to sit with you while you have your coffee and have a chat. Muffin is a stunning lady that likely has some Norwegian Forest cat breeding. Muffin is approximately 12 years old, although we can’t be sure of her exact age. However, you would never know by her demeanour that she’s a senior girl. Muffin is very independent. She loves to explore her surroundings and is very curious about the people around her. Muffin is not a lap cat, but she love to be near you. Muffin has something called hyperthyroidism - meaning she has an overproduction of thyroid hormone. This is easily managed with a small pill twice a day - it is also her absolute FAVOURITE part of the day as she loves getting treats with her pill and will eat it from your hand! Now that her hyperthyroidism is under control she can have it treated by two ways - whichever works best for her new owner. She can either be on a special veterinary diet of thyroid health food, or, she can be on any kitty food with a pill twice a day - currently she is on a pill due to how easily she eats it with treats - no pilling needed. But since Muffin likes to eat just about anything, the transition to a thyroid health diet would be very easy as well, if that works better for her new family. Due to Muffin’s extended time outside, she has learned to like her own space when it comes to other cats. This means she would do best with no other pets or calm pets that will let her have her space and be the boss! But really, a special girl of her age deserves to be spoiled as the queen of her own home, don't you think?

Muffin was a stray and being fed outside for approximately four years, before she finally made her way indoors. She has adjusted very well to the indoor lifestyle and would love nothing more than to have her own home, perhaps with a nice, bright sunny window to watch the outside world go by – a world she is happy to no longer be a part of.

Sweet Muffin deserves to be spoiled after spending several rough years outside. Since she wouldn't do well in an adoption centre with many other kitties, she is staying at the vet clinic that took her in, where she gets to roam around the whole hospital, talking to everyone she meets.
