My story

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

A mover and a shaker, Mia can be a little difficult to photograph- but that's okay! We know her real beauty lies in her personality, and want to share that with you too.

As a Bengal, being a busy body is second nature to Mia, in many ways. Whether it be that she needs to know your business all the time or that she just can't sit still, Mia's love of activity is strong. She is an athletic, intelligent, and curious breed that needs lots of opportunity to run, climb, and play to feel content. We love Mia and her energy, but in order to keep her safe, Mia is looking for an extra special home that can offer her the appropriate stimulation she is looking for, while staying an indoor cat.

A mover and a shaker indeed, Mia has a neurological condition (often known with Bengals) that causes her body to quiver. This does not cause her any pain or affect her day-to-day, but future prognosis is unknown. An indoor life is best for her, as she can be a bit unsteady on her feet at times and doesn't have the greatest jumping abilities. She makes great use of her current catio, though! Mia also requires a veterinary grade diet of urinary care food, and annual checkups. Mia does not let any medical things hold her back, and prefers to show you all the things she CAN do!

If you're lucky to catch Mia in a post play nap moment, you'll get to marvel at how she stretches out her body and legs, all while curling her head in tight to achieve what she thinks is an optimal sleeping position. We don't always see the comfort in it, but she sure does! Mia is quick to break from her slumber if someone enters her vicinity, because in her mind, there is nothing better than some good ole human interaction. She'll greet you at the door, chatter at you throughout the day, and offer you all the companionship you could ever want!

Mia loves her people so much, that she prefers if the relationship stayed just between you, and didn't involve sharing with other animals. She is happy to dole out her affection to multiple human household members though, especially if it means there's more playtime and pats for her!

While she may be petite in stature, Mia does nothing small. If you're looking to add big feelings, big energy, and big personality into your home, Mia is your gal.
