May became a Waverly Pet Rescue kitty after her owner died in Buchanan County, Iowa. She was very sick and scared when taken in. As her health improved, she became less scared and more outgoing.

May, Female White and Brown Tabby; Domestic Shorthair, 10 yrs old as of Jan. 2024.

May is…
~ loving, sweet, friendly and outgoing.
~cute little face
~ great with people, kids and dogs/cats.
~ affectionate and loves to be petted and come and cuddle with you.
~ shy upon meeting new people.
~ beautiful with markings that resemble a cheetah mixed with a tiger.

May reminds me of the heart emoji. She has such a sweet and loving energy and presence. She loves to be petted! When she sees that you are coming to pet her and give her attention she starts to do these little somersaults. She is such a sweet and friendly girl. She has the cutest little face and beautiful markings.

She gets along well with other cats and needs to be adopted into a home with other friendly cats. She would not do well with cats that tend to bully.

She needs to be integrated into a house very slowly over days to weeks. Very small spaces first and then very slowly transition to a little bit bigger spaces etc..

2/4/24 May is showing signs of kidney disease in both kidneys based on x-rays from the vet. The disease is in its early stages, which is a relief, and she seems pretty much her happy, normal self from the outside. The kidneys are still doing their job pretty well, thankfully, and continuing to show high function. They have her on special prescription food to help keep everything under control. When adopted, she will need to stay on this prescription food so she can still live a long happy life.

May's adoption fee is $95.00. She is spayed, UTD on vaccinations and tested negative for FeLK/FIV.


WE ARE A NO-KILL 501-C-3 NON-PROFIT RESCUE. All donations are tax deductible. We do not have a shelter. All pets live in foster homes. We only adopt to indoor homes.

If you have assault, domestic abuse, or drug charges please do not apply. If you have questions, please send an email to waverlypetrescue@mchsi.com

All animals see a vet for shots and normal exams. If they appear healthy and there are no obvious health concerns, then extensive testing is not done. This is normal procedure for pet rescues and shelters.
Waverly Pet Rescue puts a lot of money into medical care for each dog and cat we take in. $200 is the average cost for basic care. This does not include if the animal had an injury, required extra flea / ear mite treatments, or needed extra days at the vet office.
