Rescue:

A woman had been calling around to different rescues in her area, trying to find a place for a
pretty cat in her backyard. This is Melba’s story: Apparently this pretty Torti had been crying at
her door for a few months. She wasn’t able to bring it into her house (as much as she loves
cats) because her husband was highly allergic. She immediately she began feeding her and
developed a routine in the morning and in the evening, but where she slept overnight; they
never did figure that out. She appeared to be clean and dry when she came into the sanctuary
so she must have found a corner somewhere inside a shed, or the neighbours dilapidated
pool house possibly. Because Melba would only come within a few feet of the woman, she
was rescued by using a humane trap, and on the drive to the sanctuary she was asking a lot of
questions (mewing). Upon arrival she was easy to pet and pushed her head into our hands
with love and affection. At this time she was hugely pregnant and she had her kittens within seven days.

Personality:

Magic: This cutie is a curious and confident boy who is vocal like his mother and loves his
cheeks being rubbed and his back scratched. He is a very helpful litter box cleaner and will
supervise your efforts to keep it tidy. He loves the scratch posts, crinkle tunnels, springs and
balls with bells. Such a busy boy. The cat tree is his favourite thing, as he likes the climbing
aspect of it, but also the view from the top. Magic is like his siblings, needing a companion to
play with, develop games together, cuddle and groom each other. He is ready to be adopted
into his forever home with a playmate or sibling. One that will welcome him into the family and
keep him safely indoors
