Tiny the Tabby is Cat of the Week at Carson City’s Catmandu
Meet Tiny, with her big whiskers, white toes and fluffy tail, she is absolutely adorable. This 7-year-old short-haired tabby girl is a little hesitant around strangers, but incredibly sweet and loving once she is comfortable with you.
Tiny was rescued as a teeny tiny baby just a week or so old by a kind and loving couple at the Holbrook Junction trailer park near Topaz Lake. A bottle baby, she learned early on to love and trust her human mom and how to get along with the other feline members of her family. Life was good for the next 7 years.
When catastrophe struck her family in December, they were no longer able to keep and care for Tiny and several other members of her feline family. Catmandu was able to step in and help and she arrived at our doors about 3 weeks ago. It’s taken her a few weeks to adjust to no longer being in the only home she ever knew, or with the people she knew and loved. She is slowly beginning to trust new people.
A little aloof with people she doesn’t know, she will become an amazing and loving friend to someone willing to take just a little bit of time to let her know she is safe and loved. This sweet girl will snuggle into you, purring and cuddling. Once comfortable, she likes to sit on your lap and loves attention. She has never been around dogs or small children and prefers women to men, although she is fine with receiving pets from men once she is comfortable.
A dental yesterday removed a number of bad teeth and gave her a clean bill of health. Spayed and up-to-date on all vaccines, she is now ready to go to her new loving home.
If you would like to meet Tiny and possibly take her home to be your new best friend, please come to Catmandu this weekend. We are located at 1829 Brown Street and open Friday – Sunday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.
