May - No Longer Accepting Applications Domestic Short Hair & Siamese Mix Minneapolis, MN

May is a six-month-old playful and independent kitten looking for her forever home!

This striking tortie seal point girl is very sweet and independent. She loves to keep busy playing with her favorite toys during the day and sleep stretched out along your legs at night. She will spin joyfully when she catches her toy or when she sees the food bowl coming.

She is a little chatty, not too much, just to alert you that she would like food and that she has brought a ball over to fetch. She hasn't quite bought into the idea of skritches just yet—she will let you handle her and pet her but she's not quite sure why you're so into her.

May loves any snake-like toys and strings and is as adept as a professional soccer player with her sparkle ball toys. She likes to playfully roughhouse with my resident cat, but not too rough; in fact, she would cuddle up full time with her if my resident cat allowed it! May isn't clingy and likes to nap on a comfy chair by the window when I work from home.

She is a high-energy young gal and is happy to play by herself with toys but would prefer if you join in on the fun! May is currently living with us in a one-bedroom, fifth-floor apartment with one five-year-old resident cat and no children. She enjoys her kibble throughout the day and doesn't seem to have any food aggression or overeating issues right now. Her favorite treats are the Churu-style ones. She prefers dry food over wet but if it's wet, she'd like the chef to provide salmon and not chicken, please.

As a kitten, May will need to go home with a kitten buddy, or to a home with another active young resident cat to show her the ropes. Her ideal home would be with humans who embrace kitten shenanigans, and who can help her direct her high energy in positive outlets like playing.

She will need to stay indoors as her sense of adventure is strong. She was found as a stray behind a business in Bloomington and taken to animal control as a three-month-old kitten. She has tried to dart out of the apartment into the hallway a couple times but is learning to stay happy at home where the kibble is!

She still has a little bit of a bite reflex if you try to pet her too enthusiastically, so will need continued work with a patient family who can teach her that nips and bites are not socially acceptable communication. May is improving a lot in this area; she is learning that hands are friendly things that give skritches and treats.

As a former outdoor-only youngster, May occasionally has unintentional pee accidents, but she is learning fast as she gets more settled indoors; this should keep improving as she feels comfortable in her new home.

She does great with my resident cat and is unknown with dogs at this point. May would prefer a home with no young children, but gentle, cat-savvy older children/teens would be okay.

This lovely girl has lived a lot of life for someone so young! She is truly ready to live the happy indoor life with a fellow furry pal, with patient, kind people who can help her adjust and savor the joys of fluffy pillows and cat toys. Could that be with you?
