Mabel

Mabel is a beautiful diluted tabico with unique markings and coloring. Though she is more on the timid side and can startle easily, she warms up with patience. Mabel is not shy about her affection once she feels comfortable, often enjoying sitting with her foster mother and asking for pets. She is more confident with other cats around and is always with her foster siblings. Mabel is looking for a home with patient owners and other playful cats that she can feel secure around. A wand toy is also a must for Mabel during playtime. <br/><br/>++++++++++++++++++++<br/><br/>Settling In: Embracing the Rule of Threes Transitioning to a new environment is quite a journey for a cat. To assist with this, we like to remember the Rule of Threes, a timeline to help you gauge your new cat's acclimation:<br/><br/>• 3 Days: Time to unwind and begin to understand their new surroundings. Feeling safe. <br/>• 3 Weeks: Familiarization with their new home and daily routines. Knowing their home means they’re easier to get back home if lost. <br/>• 3 Months: Full integration into the family, truly feeling at home, personality comes alive. They blossom! <br/><br/>Remember, patience is key! Behavioral changes are part of the process. For more insights on acclimation, head to our FAQ section at https://www.feralaffairs.org/faq/.<br/><br/>Our Promise for Every Cat and Kitten: Before coming home with you, each cat is:<br/>• Spayed/neutered to promote their health and wellbeing.<br/>• Vaccinated, including rabies & FVRCP, to protect against diseases.<br/>• Microchipped for an added security blanket - to reunite you when picked up and scanned. <br/>• Screened for FIV & FeLV, ensuring they start off healthy.<br/>• Treated to remain parasite-free, because comfort matters.<br/>• Given any additional veterinary care needed for ongoing health issues.<br/>• Sent home with a full medical history to hand to your vet’s office.<br/><br/>Ready to Adopt?
