Calico and Tabby Cats Available for Adoption in Unm, New Mexico

Squeaky expressed herself with just a tiny mew (and still does) when she was rescued as a two-week-old kitten. She came into her foster home and was immediately befriended by Gus, a foster kitty that doesn't get along with other adult cats. We have recently learned that Squeaky had six siblings and that her mother was a beautiful calico.

Squeaky loves to romp and play with all the cats in the home. She and Gus have been close buddies for as long as she can remember. She's now more confident and spends time playing on her own with her favorite toys.

Her litter box etiquette is excellent and, as you see from these photos, she's content to play and scratch on her own furniture.

Squeaky's perfect home will have lots of perches, windows and playtime, good food, and, especially, plenty of love and affection from her humans!
