Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption

Amira's name means "princess" or "commander," and you can see in her eyes that she is! As mother of the celestial kittens, she lets them know what's expected of them and they listen.

Amira isn't your basic tabby; she looks more like an exotic Ocicat with her sensational spotted coat and prominent, pointy ears. This enchanting 1-2- year-old girl is ready to shed the life of a stray and a young mother and is looking for a kingdom of her own, where she can reign peacefully with her people and another feline friend.

At such a young age, this beauty has already had a litter of 5 kittens. She was trapped as a pregnant stray living in a colony in Jordan, MN, and luckily had her babies in a warm, loving home.

She was wary of everything, at first, but has come around to liking scratches on the chin, being near the action in her favorite safe spots, chortling for "role call" of her kittens, and sampling ALL the treats. She's a mellow girl who will sit next to you if you're eating something tasty.

This princess is always the last one noshing on the wet food, making sure all her kittens are members of the clean-plate club as well.

Amira isn't much of a lap cat, but she does like to be near you, sitting on the couch next to your or the chair nearby. She likes to stretch out on the scratching posts or cat tree but isn't interested in being up high. The dining room chair or the base of the cat tree are her favorite resting spots - that way she can keep tabs on all her kittens.

Currently, this striking love lives in a foster home with her 5 kittens, and two adult humans.

She has lived in a colony with other cats and would probably enjoy a feline friend, maybe even one of her kittens. Her ideal home might be on the quieter side, with adults or older children who will respect her space when needed.

Amira can be a little reserved at first and might spend some time under the couch, but after a few days, you'll be rewarded with an amazing, furry companion who brings her own loving, quiet presence to any room!
