Meet Maleficent, the elegant 8-year-old long-haired black cat with a story as mysterious as her namesake. Maleficent began her life as a shy girl, spending her early years outdoors before being taken in by people and introduced to the comforts of indoor living. However, when circumstances changed and her previous caregivers could no longer care for her, Maleficent found herself surrendered to our facility.

Adjusting to life at the shelter wasn't easy for Maleficent, but with time and patience, she has learned to trust and bond with certain staff members and employees. Despite her initial shyness, Maleficent's true beauty shines through in her gentle nature and quiet demeanor.

Maleficent carries the FIV virus, which means she has a weakened immune system. However, FIV is not contagious to humans or other animal species, and Maleficent has lived harmoniously with other cats for years without issue. Additionally, Maleficent has early-stage kidney disease and is currently on a prescription diet to manage her condition.

If you're looking for a loyal companion who will appreciate a calm and loving environment, Maleficent could be the perfect match for you.
