Rescue:

Mitzie was a survivor and showed up in the summer in a small village and found a house where the
kind owners started to leave food for her. In the fall, she presented her five kittens, and despite the
fact that there was a heated cat house for her, the owners of the house knew that the kittens
needed more care. They named her Mitzie and although she had was a protective nature, she
would need a boost of true human kindness to help her guard her little ones in the unpredictable
outdoors. As soon as the kittens were weaned from their mom, the home owners started looking for
adoptive families for them.They kept two of the kittens, a neighbour adopted one, and the
remaining kittens came into Pet Patrol’s care, where they have thrived. Mitzie is now transitioning
from being a strong, protective mom, to learning how to live the life of an indoor cat.

Personality:

Mitzie didn’t have the easiest start in life, raising her kittens outdoors until a kind person offered her
the safety of a warm shelter. She and her kittens were brought indoors, and while her babies have
all found their forever homes, Mitzie is still patiently waiting for hers. She can be a little shy at first,
but don’t let that fool you—Mitzie is incredibly playful and enjoys the company of the other cats at
the sanctuary. With a bit of time and patience, her true personality begins to shine. While in foster
care raising her kittens, Mitzie showed just how friendly and loving she can be. We truly believe that
side of her is still there, just waiting for the right person to help her feel safe enough to show it
again. Mitzie would do best in a calm, patient home where she’s given the time she needs to settle
in and build trust. Once she does, she has all the potential to become a wonderful, affectionate
companion.
