Shiraz Siamese & Tortoiseshell Mix Kalamazoo, MI

Meet Shiraz! (approx 1 year old)

Shiraz came to us when someone found her on the streets looking very visibly pregnant. We got her all set up in foster and waited for her to have her babies, which should have been any day at that point. Several weeks later without any kittens, we took her into the vet to see what was going on and discovered that instead of kittens, her belly was full with a huge uterine infection called pyometra! She was immediately spayed and given antibiotics, and now she’s happy and healthy.

Shiraz has all of the attitude of a Siamese cat combined with all of the tortitude her color-points would have you expect. All she wants is to snuggle with her person, and she’s not shy about telling you! She’ll even chatter and bat at you if you try to leave the room or walk past without acknowledging her. She has a similar response to being told no—she believes she is in charge 100%. Even with all that sass, she’s incredibly sweet and has the biggest purrs when she’s happy. This tiny girl has a big personality, and while she’s used to other cats and cohabitates well, she’ll do best in a home where she can be queen bee and any other pets won’t mind her being in charge.

Come meet Shiraz at the cafe today!
