Beautiful Melody came to us in late March as a transport from another rescue in Puerto Rico. She spent her time in Puerto Rico living under a yellow bus and hiding from her abusive owner. Her foster parent from Puerto Rico let us know that she likes air conditioning, cuddling with people, and being pampered. From her time here, we can happily report that these things are true. Her name is very fitting since she often sings beautiful melodies while being petted.
She is a very sweet girl who enjoys being petted and having her bum scratched. She likes to explore and will often come out of her cage while we are cleaning and go over and underneath everything smelling all the new smells she can find. She does not like other cats and we can assume she does not like dogs, after seeing her reaction to cats. Meet Melody during our open hours or by appointment on other days.
