About Momo (Domestic short hair) in Princeton

Momo is waiting for you at Ruff Start Rescue in Princeton, MN 55371. Momo is a sweet and gorgeous little darling who is still learning to live with people . She was living outside with her brother Gumby before being brought in and out of the cold. Momo is very fearful and shy, yet absolutely loves to have her chin, ears, and head scratched (see video ). She prefers the cat tree life and would appreciate having a window to look out of in her new home. Momo will need significant time and patience to adjust to civilized life. She tolerates quiet and calm human interaction, and is a gentle soul, but is still learning that people can be trusted. Sh e currently resides with a small dog and another cat, but they have had minimal interaction. She would do best in a quiet household without kids, but would likely benefit from another confident cat, and/or remaining with her brother. Momo is from stray surrender with her brother.
