Rescue:
Momma Bellina came from a traditional farm where Siamese cats were being bred in the barn. The
cats had access to a heated, relatively clean area for shelter but were also free to roam the
property. Bellina, a black cat who had originally shown up on her own, was eventually included in
the breeding as well. Unfortunately, there was far less interest in adopting black kittens, and after
her second litter struggled to find homes, it became clear that something needed to change. Bellina
eventually came into Pet Patrol’s care with her five kittens Birdie, Bernadette, Benny, Bonita, and
BamBam finally bringing her days of producing litter after litter to an end. The whole family was
given the care and medical attention they needed and are ready live the life of luxury.
Personality:
Bonita is a sweet, gentle girl who likes to take her time getting to know the world around her. The
most cautious of her litter, she may initially watch from a comfortable distance while she decides
whether everything feels safe. With patience and kindness, Bonita begins to trust and soon melts
into affection, especially when head and cheek rubs are involved. She loves playing and wrestling
with her siblings and enjoys following the older cats in her foster home, learning from their example
and enjoying their companionship. Bonita would thrive with a patient family who will let her
confidence continue to grow at her own pace. Quiet, observant, and wonderfully sweet once she
feels secure, Bonita is ready to be adopted into her forever home—one that will welcome her into
the family and keep her safely indoors.
