Stella Memphis | Female | Domestic Floofer (DLH) |
Rescue Story:
I was surrendered with my mom (Cairo) and my sister Autumn when my mom and I developed mammary tumors. This is why it is so important to spay your cats. Had that been done when I was younger before my first heat I would have never had cancer. Thankfully it hadn't spread and the tumors could be removed. We have since fully recovered and looking for special homes.
Date of Birth: April 2018
Energy Level: Low - Medium
Size (adult): Medium
Adoption Fee: $25
Good with Dogs? Unknown
Only calm cat friendly dogs who won't chase me, with proper introductions of course. I don't like pushy dogs and will swat at them to back off.
Good with Cats? Yes
But I do require very slow intros and very cat friendly cats only. I do love Autumn and would love to be adopted with her.
Good with Kids? Unknown
Older kids only as I am a queen who has set desires.
Critter Twitter:
I am one stunning cat who knows it. Call me queen Stella. I am very loving and affectionate but on my terms only. And I will let you know quite quickly if you are petting me wrong or in the wrong spot. I do enjoy playing but I am also happy to do my own thing. I love being around people as much as possible but I am not super clingy so if you worked from home I wouldn't be annoying you for attention all the time. That's just how considerate I am. Aren't I just awesome! #loveme #cancerfighter
About my Behaviour:
I do not like being held against my will, getting nail trims, or being picked up. I will need a patient understanding owner. It may take a few days to be able to trim all my nails but it's possible. I really am not a fan of my feet being touched. You can work on desensitizing me by touching my paw and giving me a treat and then working up to doing my nails. It will take time but it is very possible.
I would love to be adopted with Autumn if possible, and if so there would be no adoption fee for me. Only $170 for us two girls which is a great deal. I would otherwise like another very cat-friendly cat in the home who is not a bully with slow introductions if you work long hours. I would get lonely if you were away and I was on my own.
How’s my Health?
I am fully vetted. I had a mammary tumor removed and the vet said there is a chance of it returning. Any lumps will have to be checked out by the vet immediately to ensure it's not cancer. And if something seems off about me it's good to get a check-up just to ensure I am ok. Zoe's will offer rescue rates at one of their partner vets for any time I need to go to the vet. But it is unlikely to return given both mammary chains were removed.
