Silky Mae is a beauty! She is Silky is approximately 8-12 months old, and is wearing a dainty tuxedo.
She was dumped at a Dollar General store while already in the 'faimly way' and cared for by the DGH staff until they alerted SPCHS and one of our best kitty fosters took her in. The timing was perfect, as she delivered very quickly a very large litter of eight. It was the first litter for this beauty who was barely more than a kitten herself.
Despite losing one kitten within 24 hours, Silky Mae has been a marvelous mama taking excellent care of the six boys and one dainty girl. This took a severe toll on SM's health and she's been on special care and foods to rebuild her stamina and her immune system.
Her kittens are now weened, so she is looking for the purr-fect furever home where she will be treated like the goddess that she knows she is meant to be.
She has been spayed and microchipped, is up to date on vaccines, tested negative for FIV/FeLeuk. She is still recovering from the rigors of mothering 7 rambunctious babies.
