Could you give Teigan a loved life, asks Sheffield animal charity the RSPCA?
The eleven-year-old Maine Coon breed, who has a beautiful tabby and white coat, ended up at the Sheffield branch of the animal charity, the RSPCA, as her owners were no longer able to offer her the care she needed.
When she arrived, she found the upheaval to her life very upsetting and she struggled with the cattery environment.

were in her space.
A spokesman for the RSPCA said: “ We tried our best to make her more happy and comfortable, moving her to a quieter, less populated area of the cattery and giving her dedicated carers for minimal change to her routine.
“This, along with our usual daily socialisation routine suited her much better and we very soon started to see Teigan start to relax and settle.”
They added: “ She has grown in confidence over the last few months and n ow she is a loving and affectionate girl , who loves to rub around your legs .
“She loves a bit of playtime.

An independent girl, Teigan is looking for a cat experienced, adult only home where she can be the only puss.
She’s looking for a home where she can be loved and adored for the quirky girl that she is.
She will need lots of love and support whilst she settles in and gets used to her new family and home at her own pace.
