Napster, bad! Naptime, good! Mewtallica is ready to rock her way into your hearts and home, and we're more than happy to share her with all of our fans (just don't tell Lars, he hates that)!
Mewtallica was found as a stray and to everyone’s surprise she had a shard of metal wrapped around her teeth and protruding through her chin, which is how she got her name in the same spirit of some Arizona landmarks! In retrospect she should have really been named Marshmellica, or maybe Purrelica, becasue even with metal in her mouth she was always so sweet 'n purry! Since her arrival on the scene we have actually removed all of her teeth, so her toothless grin is now part of the overall charm.
Some of her favorite things to do in descending order: 1) food! She loves food! She is not very happy about the fact that she only gets breakfast and dinner and the food is not served the whole day all you can eat style, but she also realizes that it is best to keep in shape and always be ready for the beach season. 2) people! This is where the Mewtallica façade comes off and Marshmellica inner self kicks in. She loves to hang out next to the human, get head scratches and pets, or just chill next and watch tv (however she is an independent lady and is not shy to let you know that she had enough of pets and she is just there next to you to be admired but not touched)! 3) string toys! Don’t let the age fool you - Ms. Mew loves to play and 4) watching birds from the windowsill and taking naps in the sunny side.
There is only one thing she does not like – getting her nails clipped! She loves perfecting her manicure with cat trees! But with some treats she will let you do the manicure your style. Mewtallica has perfect litterbox manners – covered litterboxes are her favorite. She is a social lady and would be fine with another friendly feline friend (after slow introduction) but also would not mind to be the only source of your feline affection.
Mewtallica is on an easy medication to treat hyperthyroidism and she's also on a special diet for kidney disease, both are common senior related conditions. Her adopters should just plan to have her seen at their vet a few times a year to recheck her kidney and thyroid values. To help start off on the right foot, this cutie will go home with a 3 MONTH SUPPLY CARE PACKAGE including her medication and special diet!
