These poor babies were living in someone's back yard in the heat. She was fixed and brough to our rescue to recover. It was discovered that she is a very sweet girl. We were also informed that her kittens all passed away. They were saved by a different rescue. <br/><br/><br/>So YAMATO (named after the anime: ONE PIECE) has known the street life for a very short time. With all the tragedy that has happened to this girl, she deserves to be have a wonderful home. She has now been living a nice pampered life in our cattery. <br/><br/><br/>Meet YAMATO, a feline with a spirit as strong as her namesake. Her independence shines through in her daily routines. She's brave, often exploring new corners of her surroundings with a cautious curiosity. Her intelligence is evident in the way she solves our treat puzzles and toys. Despite her bravery and smarts, YAMATO maintains a mellow demeanor, often seen lounging peacefully. <br/><br/><br/>She can be a bit shy and skittish, preferring a calm, quiet environment. But once she warms up to you, she'll show you a loyalty that's unmatched. Adopt YAMATO and you'll gain not just a pet, but a companion who will brave life's adventures with you, offering a comforting presence in quieter moments. Oh if you look at her sweet little face, she is slightly crossed-eyed.<br/><br/><br/>YAMATO is DOMESTIC SHORT HAIR / TURKISH VAN MIX.
