In the shelter’s words
Meet Mama Mia, a beautiful tortie calico with the gentlest face and the tiniest, most polite little mew. She sounds like shes saying hello is this okay every time she speaks, and it melts hearts instantly. When she first arrived, Mama Mia watched the world quietly from her favorite cubby, waiting patiently for someone to show her kindness again. She is a soft-spoken sweetheart who is learning to trust, one gentle step at a time. Progress has been beautiful. She now offers cautious head bonks, leans into chin scratches, and actively seeks pets, pressing her cheek into your palm and purring contentedly. She even allowed a gentle hand to rest on her back while she stayed relaxed and happy. Toys make her light up, especially soft fluffy ones that she kicks bunny-style with her back feet. She has not been tested with other cats yet, but her calm, quiet nature suggests she would thrive as an only cat or with another gentle, respectful companion. Mama Mia is looking for a patient, quiet home with soft voices and gentle hands, where she can continue blossoming at her own pace. In return, she offers the sweetest, most rewarding love that grows deeper over time. If you have room in your heart for a shy girl ready to trust again, come meet Mama Mia. She is saving her next tiny mew just for you. Visitors to the shelter are by appointment only and after a form has been submitted online: https://www.marshmallowfoundation.org/forms/

Plan a visit with the source organization
Marshmallow Animal Shelter wants to make certain that every animal adopted goes to a loving home where it will be well cared. Because of this, our application asks a number of detailed questions, which are necessary for our screening process. Our application will ask you to what lengths you are willing to go, in order to accommodate the animal's needs and training. You must be able to show commitment of time, finances, energy and compassion to the animal. Once your application is approved, we require that you sign a contract guaranteeing non-transferal/sale of animal, its proper care, and spay/neuter surgery if not already done.
