Meet Ursa Major, a gentle and loving 4-year-old girl who brings a sense of calm to any home and yet shines like the star she is and always will be.She was dumped on the doorstep of CACC with her 6 beautiful kittens. Shes not a needy cat, but a extremely loyal girl and loves being near people. URSA enjoys bird-watching from a window seat, chasing the occasional feather toy, and gentle petting. She is independent enough to do her own thing while you’re busy, but she is always ready for a quiet cuddle session in the evening. She would love a home where she can lounge, watch the world go by, and share her love. Ursa doesn't like other cats. However she didn't seem to mind the family dog!
