Adopt a Domestic Medium Hair / Mixed

Shaleah is a very special Siamese girl with brilliant, sapphire blue eyes. Adopted from Purrfect Pals as a kitten in 2011, she was returned when her family's situation changed, and they could no longer keep her. Imagine our surprise when the gorgeous little Siamese kitten we knew returned as a morbidly obese 26-pound kitty! She is on a strict diet of one can of prescription W/D wet food twice a day. She's now down to 18 pounds (and continuing to lose weight) but it's a long, slow process. Currently, Shaleah has some issues with her ?personal? hygiene as a result of her weight and other issues internally. She was diagnosed as incontinent so, she needs a little assistance keeping things spiffy. Shaleah is hoping to find that wonderful person who knows her love and companionship are worth the extra effort. Shaleah is an independent cat who is initially shy but friendly and outgoing once she feels secure in her surroundings. At the shelter, she enjoys meeting new people and absolutely blossoms when admired, petted, or spoken with. She's quite the personality, enjoying being with people, but not wanting to be picked up or held. Typical of her Siamese heritage, she's a chatty girl who will gladly give an opinion on just about anything except religion, politics, or money. She will be sure to tell you when she wants attention or pets, and she'll also let you know when she needs a little peace and quiet. She can get overstimulated and may nip to let you know she's had enough attention for the moment. Because of that, she'll probably do best with an experienced cat person in an adult home without young children. She gets along well with other cats but would also be okay as an only cat. Shaleah is going to make somebody an absolutely devoted, loving, beautiful companion and she'd like to do that sooner rather than later. Could you help this lady out and give her the forever home she deserves and wants? Like all Purrfect Pals cats, Shaleah has been viral tested, altered, microchipped and vaccinated.
