M & M came to the the St. Mary's Animal Welfare League when her mommy was admitted to a nursing home with a fast progressing debilitating brain disease. M & M had never lived with cats or dogs. In fact she had never lived with anyone other than her elderly mom. She is a beautiful, grey, long haired, declawed cat who thrives on being brushed and petted.

Family members took her in and tried to make it work. However, with their three dogs and three dogs, M & M could not become comfortable. She took to hiding in the basement. However, when someone went to the basement she was all over that person loving and rubbing on them begging for affection. M & M craves the love and attention she always used to get from her mommy. M & M has since moved to a foster home with one cat. She has done better there; however, she is still afraid of the cat.

All she wants is that home where she can the queen again. Her ideal home would be where she can have someone that is home with her most of the day. She gets very upset when her foster mom has to leave her to go to work. She loves to sleep in bed with her foster mom, snuggled very close. She is okay with older children, but gets nervous with young children. I know that home is out there somewhere.

I know that out there somewhere is that PURRson who needs M & M right now just as much as M & M needs her or him.

So, I am calling this an All County Citizen Cat Alert. M & M the cat needs our help. Please help us pass this email around the county to find that one PURRson who is a match for M & M.

Remember, M & M is front declawed, so would be a good match for an elderly person.
