Maki's Story

Meet Maki, a one year (ish) old soft gray and white beauty with long, cloudlike fur and striking green eyes that seem to understand more than she lets on. Life didn't start out easy for her, but you'd never know it from the way she loves now: deeply, loyally, and with her whole heart. Maki is a people cat through and through. Once she trusts you, she'll melt into your presence, offering gentle affection, slow blinks, and her signature “air biscuits” as she settles in close. She's especially fond of belly rubs and will happily soak up every bit of love you have to give. She prefers a home where she can be the center of your world. Other cats make her feel stressed, so she's happiest as your one and only feline companion. Dogs? She could take them or leave them, true to her quietly confident nature. She loves the kids in her foster home and enjoys the company of strangers as well. Maki's journey has shaped her into a tender, soulful companion who just wants a safe place and someone to love. Give her that, and she'll give you everything right back. All of our cats come spayed or neutered, microchipped, and with age-appropriate vaccinations. Young cats have an adoption fee of $175. If you would like to apply to be a forever home for this cat, please fill out a statement of interest at www.alternativehumanesociety.com. Unless otherwise indicated, all our cats and kittens are best suited for indoor-only life.
