Description:
Maya: Brave Survivor, Gentle Soul, Forever Friend Hi, I’m Maya — a little cat with a big story. I was born on the streets of Bulgaria, where life isn’t easy for kittens like me. When I was just a few months old, I was badly injured, possibly from a dog attack. For a while, no one knew if I would survive. But with weeks of care, love, and a fighting spirit, I pulled through. Now I wear a small scar on my face, but it’s just a reminder of how far I’ve come. It doesn’t stop me from eating neatly, chasing toys, leaping up to the tallest cupboards, or curling up close for snuggles. I’m a little shy in new places, but once I trust you, I’ll meet your eyes when you call my name and happily soak up every gentle pet and cuddle. I’d do best with someone who has time to keep me company, or with a nurturing kitty friend. I can spend some time alone, but what I really love is 1:1 time with my person — your touch and love help me feel safe and even encourage me to eat more. From the streets of Bulgaria to a foster home in San Francisco, my journey has been long, but it’s led me here — ready for a forever family who will see not just my scar, but my heart. Could that be you?
