Great Cats for Great Homes

In the summer there's nothing more that Mabel likes to do than to spend most of the day outside laying in a shady spot. At night she'll come inside for pets and to curl up next to you (not on top of you). And in the winter, Mabel will still go outside for a few hours but she prefers to curl up next to her favorite person or find a cozy spot to rest.

Mabel is a gentle senior lady of 12 years and a beautiful soul who doesn't scratch furniture and loves to scratch her post. She has a spry step, and she's docile and smart. We have coyotes where we live, but she knows how to avoid them. Good with kids and other cats. We can tell that she was a mother in her past with the way she behaves with younger cats.

Mabel is a talker and always announces herself when she enters the house. She'll also do a specific meow when she's looking for pets. She isn't the type of cat who will walk against your leg for attention, but she'll either come up and meow or come near and sit down to wait patiently. Mabel has early stage kidney disease. However, this has been a minimal disruption. As long as she eats her kidney-friendly kibble, the condition should be fully managed, not progress and should not impact her health or vet visits. Since we switched her food six months ago, Mabel has had her normal energy level and is doing great.

One last thing to note, some cats are heavy shedders and get their fur all over your clothes. With Mabel, this is not the case, so your clothes will remain clean.  Mabel's rehoming fee is $75 and she lives in Portland with her owner.

This cat is offered for adoption due to the owner's personal circumstances. For more information on meeting and adopting this kitty, please fill out a pre-adoption application under "ADOPT" on our website at WWW.CATSCRADLERESCUE.COM. Your information will be forwarded to the owner for follow-ups and meeting arrangement. 

Cat's Cradle is an all-volunteer, non-profit foster-home based rescue serving Oregon cats who need new homes. 100% of your adoption fee goes to provide for the medical and physical needs of the cats in our care. We invite you to become a foster parent and experience the great satisfaction of helping a cat or kitten in need.
