Smoke is about 8 years old, originally adopted from the Beaumont Texas Humane Society and always raised indoors. She lives with her siblings in Olive Branch, MS, and my parents are having health issues so that they can no longer take care of them. Smoke is a sweet cat and the Humane Society says that the litter has some Maine Coon genes as well. She was the smallest of the litter and has turned shy as she got older. She seems to prefer being around men and will pick her "favorite" that she gravitates to. She does well with other cats and children. I have not seen her around dogs so I cannot say whether this would be a good fit or not. She is up to date on all of her vaccinations / shots with regular annual vet visits.
