Bideawee Pet of the Week: Minerva

This week  is looking to find a home for Minerva, a sweet, social, five-year-old Domestic Shorthair cat, who sports beautiful dilute tortoiseshell markings. 

According to Deanna Murphy, the client care coordinator for Bideawee, Minerva was found by the Bideawee staff, after being abandoned. 

"When Minerva was found she had a large scar on her head, a newly healed gash that she suffered either under the watch of a previous owner or when she was left outside to fend for herself," said Murphy. 

Murphy says Minerva is very sweet, but needs time and patience when adjusting to a new environment. she can also, said Murphy, be protective of her area, so a cat-savvy adopter is ideal for her.  

"Minerva is seeking a home with children over 12, who can devote to her the specialized care that she so deserves," she said.

The adoption fee for Minerva is $150. All of Bideawee’s pets are spayed or neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccinations. Bideawee’s pets receive socialization, exercise, behavioral training and other daily activities that let the staff get to know each animal's special personality to make the best match.

To adopt Minerva or any other animal, call the Adoption Center at 631-325-0200 or visit them at 118 Old Country Road, Westhampton.
