Maleficent - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Effingham, Illinois

Maleficent is a petite 41⁄2-year-old all-black cat with a wonderfully affectionate personality and a look that makes her impossible to forget.

One of her eyes is cloudy, but it does not seem to bother her at all. If anything, it just adds a little extra character to an already very charming cat.

Despite the dramatic name, Maleficent is much more cuddle bug than villain. She is sweet, loving, and very affectionate, and she seems happiest when she is getting attention from her people.

Maleficent also came to us already declawed. Because declawed cats can sometimes be more sensitive about their paws and litter box setup, her future family should be willing to pay attention to what keeps her most comfortable.

At 41⁄2 years old, she is past the kitten stage but still has plenty of life, personality, and love to give.

If you are looking for a petite little house panther with a quirky look and a very sweet heart, Maleficent may be your girl.
