ATALANA

My story

PLEASE READ ALL OF THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION BELOW. IT WILL ANSWER ALL YOUR QUESTIONS. If you still have questions after, we are happy to respond through email. It is a long read and a long adoption process. Please understand we are ensuring that our babies go to great homes and we don't know you personally (yet). Understand that this is an adoption of a beautiful little soul that deserves the absolute best life. The average lifespan of a cat is 13 to 20 years. Some cats even live into their thirties, although this is far less common. So don't let that discourage you from adopting an adult cat! ATALANA her siblings (CIRCE - DESPONIA - ZEPHYR) and their mom EUROPA were saved in San Jacinto, California. The wonderful couple saved them from the very cruel neighbors. So they called us. They fostered them till they were ready to go to PETSMART. And we are so glad they did! Meet ATALANA: A Tiny Titan of Snuggles and Sound ATALANA is a petite powerhouse of personality, a small Tuxedo cat with a huge heart and an even bigger meow. This snuggly, sweet, and vocal little girl was lovingly cared for by a kind couple, so she is well-acquainted with the joys of a warm, stable home and human affection. Now ready for her next big adventure, she is on the lookout for a person or family to shower with her abundant love. ATALANA is a professional snuggler and a world-class purr-machine. She absolutely adores curling up with her people for a cozy nap, and the moment you start petting her, her rumbling purr will fill the room. Beyond her love for cuddles, she is a confident and curious explorer who loves to rub all over everything she encounters, from your legs to the furniture, leaving her scent and claiming her kingdom. A true foodie at heart, ATALANA will get especially vocal when it's time for her favorite—delicious wet food! She will chirp and meow with happy anticipation, making it impossible not to smile. Despite her small stature, her zest for life is massive. She loves to play with anything and everything, turning bottle caps, crumpled paper, or a stray shoelace into an exhilarating game. If you're looking for a tiny companion with a big, loving personality who will fill your home with joyful noise and endless cuddles, ATALANA is the perfect cat for you.
