Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Mietze is a gentle, shy and sweet, 12-year-old, ten-pound, female tuxedo tabby cat looking for a loving guardian.
Mietze was born in Berlin, Germany, and moved to Chicago with her diplomat parents four years ago. Sadly, they recently moved to Japan and couldn’t bring their cat with them.
Mietze is well-behaved in the home and uses her litter box perfectly. She has all her claws has a favorite cat tree which is really the only place she scratches and that will come with her wherever she goes!
While she can easily share a home with other cats, she’d probably bond better with her humans if she’s the only feline. She’s currently living with multiple cats and really loves all the kittens that cycle through our rescue. She really doesn’t like the dogs in my home.
When she was relinquished to rescue, her best friend was the 21-year-old daughter whose family had adopted her when she was nine years old. They grew up together and they both took the separation hard.
She loves windowsills and cat trees, but she also likes to hide. She tends to choose one spot as an excellent spot for her daily meditation.
Sadly, she was adopted for a short time, but returned a couple days later because she hid too much. She does come out; she just needs time to acclimate!
She is a healthy senior, up-to-date on vaccines, spayed, microchipped and tested negative for viruses. She had full bloodwork done and had her teeth cleaned. She does take amlodipine daily for high blood pressure. She’s typically easy to medicate; in fact she begs for her daily pill pocket treat which hides her medication.
Mietze’s adoption fee of $100 benefits the rescued pets of Friends of Petraits Rescue.

She is currently being fostered in Chicago’s Andersonville neighborhood.
