Millie is an indoor only senior cat, litter box trained, spayed, dewormed and treated for fleas. Millie is in need of a kind person that can offer her a safe place to live out her final years. Millie has likely suffered some trauma in her life and will need some time and a gentle approach to adjust to a new home. She can be very guarded and fearful with new people but can eventually be won over with treats, canned food and/or cat nip. Once she trusts you, and it will take some time, she is lovely and melts your heart with her facial expressions and personality. She keeps to a small area where she feels safe and will do well in an apartment. She loves a good ear scratch and enjoys being brushed. Millie’s mood can change quickly though and she will bite when she has had enough. However we have learnt that once she likes you, you get a warning and she doesn’t try very hard to actually get you. Then she immediately gives her best “I’m sorry! Don’t go!” look if you start to leave. It’s impossible to resist and she is very easy to forgive.
Once she has settled in to a home and living in a less stressful environment she may become quite a different cat. She does not like other cats and even though they are separated she currently sees and smells them daily. Millie’s behaviour could easily become calmer, friendlier and more outgoing but her new people should be prepared that it may not change. Millie will need regular nail trims. Her nails grow long and curve inwards so if they are not maintained she is at risk of them imbedding into the pads of her feet.
