Amaya

Amaya is a stunning, affectionate cat with a royal air. She carries herself like a queen but plays like a wild hunter, pouncing on toys with laser focus. One moment, she's daintily grooming herself; the next, she's stalking a toy mouse like a jungle cat. She loves chin scratches, watching me do my makeup, and curling up near your legs at night.<br/><br/>She was part of Mama Kitty's third and final litter, making her the youngest of the original 10 kittens I suddenly found myself raising. Mama Kitty had three litters, leaving them all in my care before vanishing. I worked hard to find them homes-some were adopted, two disappeared, and I kept three. Then, Amaya and Taquito had four kittens of their own. Out of that litter, Amber stayed, completing their little family. Now, they live alongside the three cats I officially adopted from the 14, but I know Amaya and her little family need a space of their own where they can truly thrive.<br/><br/>Amaya has a sweet but independent nature. She asks for attention on her terms-meowing gently for pets but also enjoying her personal space. Loud noises startle her, but she always bounces back. She's not just beautiful; she's affectionate, playful, and full of personality.<br/>As a mother, she still grooms Amber occasionally but also lets her be independent. She's bonded with both Amber and Taquito, so ideally, they'll be adopted together. If separated, she needs a home with other friendly cats.<br/><br/>Amaya deserves a home that will appreciate her gentle yet playful spirit.<br/>Could Amaya be your new queen? Don't forget to check out Taquito (KR ID#: KRLA-A-6386) and Amber (KR ID#: KRLA-A-6389), too!<br/>Follow @backyardkittens for videos and photos of Amaya and her adorable family!<br/><br/>If you are interested in learning more about this kitty or in adopting her please email her foster parent: Jocie.sales@gmail.com
