Maine Coon kittens & cats in Goleta, California

-

Misty came to our home after only 3 hours at the shelter in 2020. She is a maine coon mix. I kept her separated from the dogs for a week - but we quickly found out she is the alfa female - not afraid of dogs! She was turned in for not doing well in a home with children - I have not seen her fond of other cats - but she LOVED my big male dog - and only tolerated Raven (the small female dog). We lost Copper to diabetes - since then Misty & Raven have been having alpha female issues. She's not overly affectionate - doesn't like to be brushed/held - but loves to sleep next to you - snuggle close by on the sofa - likes her ears scratched - but will let you know when its enough. She insists on going outside into the back yard - but always stays in the fenced area - afraid to venture out too far - she will chase other neighbor cats off of her turf. She is an indoor/outdoor cat & needs a safe yard/garden. Since we lost Copper, Misty now lives in the garage by night & garden by day.
