Melanie Tabby & Domestic Medium Hair Mix Royal Oak, MI

Melanie is a beautiful 9-year-old medium haired tortoiseshell-tabby kitty looking for her forever home. Her favorite activities are looking out the window, laying in boxes, and chasing after toys. Sometimes she likes to relax under blankets, all cuddled up. She also loves to try to eat people food, especially stroganoff and anything cheesy. Her fosters are honored that she likes their cooking!! But it is in Melanie's best interest to only eat cat food.

Melanie is a playful girl and an excellent jumper. She can jump up to every window in her foster house! She likes to play with toy mice, and play "soccer" with whiffle balls. She keeps her area very neat and tidy - despite being fluffy, she isn't a big shedder. And she gives the best headbutts! When she wants to show she loves you, she rubs up on your legs or gives a little 'bonk'. If you become one of her select favorite people, she'll sit on your lap too (sometimes at random times).

Melanie loves meeting new people, she's not one to hide. While she can be very sweet and affectionate, she doesn't usually like to be pet because she can become overstimulated. She gives clear warning signs when she wants to be left alone, but she will nip or smack if you don't respect her limits.

Before she was rescued, Melanie was left outside when her old family moved away. She has a severe flea allergy and needs to stay on flea preventative in her forever home. Melanie had full senior bloodwork done, and she is in great health.

Melanie is currently in a foster home. If you are interested in meeting her, please send a message here, or email adopt@ahsem.org
