Egyptian Mau/Tabby
Brown Tabby
Each organization sets the adoption fee for their animals. Adoption fees help cover the cost of this animal’s care as well as allowing the organization to help more animals.
Its clear that patience is key with her. Since sudden movements can overwhelm her, its likely that building trust with Athena will take time, and that slow, consistent approach will eventually pay off. The fact that shes playful and energetic suggests that once youve earned her trust, shell open up and be an active participant in your life. Its just a matter of respecting her boundaries and allowing her to initiate physical affection when she feels ready. For someone who is attentive to her needs, I imagine ATHENA GRANT would be a deeply rewarding companion. Her playful side might come out during quiet, low-stress moments when she feels comfortable and secure.
Given her athletic build, shes probably not the type to just lounge around all day. Egyptian Maus are known for their energetic bursts, and I can imagine her delighting in chasing toys, maybe pouncing on them with that sleek, graceful movement thats characteristic of the breed. Whether shes chasing a feather wand or pouncing on a ball, those play sessions will likely be an essential part of her routine to burn off energy and keep herself mentally stimulated.
When it comes to other animals, ATHENA GRANT seems like she could thrive in a calm, peaceful household. Shed likely get along best with other cats who respect her spaceones who are more introverted or laid-back rather than overly dominant or assertive. Since shes sensitive, its understandable that she might feel overwhelmed by more dominant cats who are pushy or aggressive, but with the right companion, she might develop a harmonious relationship where both cats understand each others boundaries.
The mention of her being better suited for a home with older children is insightful. Children who are respectful of ATHENA GRANTs personal space would allow her to feel more secure and be able to interact with them at her own pace. ATHENA GRANTs shyness could be an asset in a quieter, more structured environment where she can learn to trust the people around her at her own speed.
ATHENA GRANT's story is one of resilience and healing, and her gentle soul is a reminder of the power of kindness and care. Though shes come a long way from her rough beginnings, shes never forgotten how much love can change a life. Now, she spends her days in quiet joy, a constant reminder of the unconditional love that a rescue pet can give.
ATHENA GRANTs journey from a sick kitten in a rehab center to the sweet lap cat she is today is a testament to the strength of the human-animal bond and the healing power of patience, care, and a warm lap.

If the CAT/KITTEN is still listed (meaning here or other websites) they are still available. It does not mean they don't have other pending applications or meet and greets.

We are a SMALL rescue based out of Hemet, California. We are all volunteers that run the rescue. If we haven't reached out....be patient.
