Mandy Calico & Domestic Short Hair Mix Chicago, IL

If Mandy had a theme song, it would be "Forever Young." This sweet 11 year old girl has faced some obstacles in her short life, but nothing ever slows her down! Mandy has three main priorities: chatting, playing, and snuggling. Mandy lost her house due to a fire, but within minutes of meeting her foster family, she was ready to be best friends. Little Mandy is blind in one eye due to a previous injury, but that doesn't stop her from living life to the fullest. She loves playing with wand toys, and anything she can chase or bat around. After she has her playtime, Mandy wants nothing more than to bask in the sun, cuddle with her human, or snuggle up into a basket for a cozy catnap. If her human isn't giving her the attention she deserves, Mandy will shout it from the rooftops, meowing politely until she is picked up. She also will chirp & talk back to her humans, having long conversations. We wish we spoke "cat" because this beautiful girl definitely has a lot to say! Mandy was born around 3/10/2010
