Meet Mitzi: A Special Soul with So Much Love to Give

Mitzi’s story started when she was trapped during a TNR (trap-neuter-return) session. But when we met her, it was clear she was too sweet to return to the outdoors. After her spay, we brought her back for a full checkup—and that’s when we discovered Mitzi is FeLV positive. While FeLV has no cure, Mitzi isn’t letting it hold her back. She’s healthy, lively, and has a loving spirit that’s ready to shine in a home of her own.

Because of her FeLV status, Mitzi would need to be the only cat or live with other FeLV-positive kitties. Don’t let her diagnosis scare you off—she’s full of energy, snuggles, and joy, and she deserves every bit of love a family can give. Mitzi may have unique needs, but she promises to fill your life with companionship and affection, one purr at a time.

We operate with an open adoption policy, which means we stay connected for the life of our rescues. We’re here to offer guidance and support, and we love sharing in the journey through updates and pictures. When you adopt from us, you gain both a new furry family member and a community of support.
