Maris Domestic Short Hair Mix Richardson, TX

Maris is a playful young adult. She enjoys climbing on cat trees and playing Queen of the Mountain on the top shelf. She enjoys head scratches when it is time for her breakfast or dinner she's quite food motivated. She will need an experienced adopter as she is extremely cautious around people. She can startle easily, so she will do best with an understanding family who will work with her while she acclimates to her forever home.

She is a beautiful girl who loves to be petted once she is settled. She loves to play with other cats and will do well in a home with other pets.

Maris is up-to-date on all vaccines, she is spayed and microchipped, litter box trained and eats both wet and dry food.
