MARINA Persian Mahwah, NJ

Marina is a beautiful orange and white spayed female Perisan cat who is one of our international cat rescues that we are lucky to have had the opportunity to assist in finding a new home for! Marina is approximately 1.5 years old, healthy and ready for adoption here in the USA (NYC area)

Marina was given to our rescue partners when the owner had a baby and no longer had time for her cat... Sad as Marina would have made an amazing companion for a child as she absolutely loves everyone and has an amazing personality! She can go to a home with other cats, dogs, and young children but ONLY if the children are respectful towards the pets in the home!

She has been fully vetted and is vaccinated (rabies and distemper), blood tested negative for feline viral infections; FIV/FLeV, microchipped and treated for fleas/ticks/dewormed.

We read every application that is submitted and it can take us 2-4 days to respond to most applicants. If we believe you may be a potential match for the cat(s) we will respond to you via email. This email will detail all the next steps required in order for you to be officially approved as an adopter.
