Merida - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Penfield, New York

Status: Available
Gender: female, spayed
Approximate age: 2 years

Likes: attention, giving kisses

Dislikes: Strangers... at first...

Personality: It took Merida a few weeks to come around to her foster but once she did, Merida became obsessed with her. At that point, Merida became the first cat to greet her foster at the door. She loves to give kisses and will try to groom the hair on your head. She is so sweet and doesn't create problems with other cats. Once she trusts you, she's the best.

Background: Merida was part of a massive intake from a home where the tenant was evicted. We were originally told there were only 12 cats but that number quickly climbed to over 20 after we started taking cats from the property. We are still actively trapping the shy cats. Merida was one of the first cats we took in from the home.

Vetting done: spayed, rabies vaccine, full FVRCP series, combo test (neg), microchip, Rev+ and Pyrantel.

Concerns:
Medical: None
Behavioral: None

Location: Pawsitive Cat Cafe
115 East Ave, Rochester, NY 14604

Intake date: 6/21/26
