Black Magic LadyMiss Bruce is our mascot. She exemplifies what Cat Tails Rescue is all about. She has
had a tough life since when she was a young feral cat living outside she lost most of her ears and half of her tail from frost bite. She was not treated very well in her first home and her first litter of kittens were disposed of. She had a second litter of kittens while
in foster and she was a very protective mom. Originally, her name was Brucey as it was thought that she was a male cat. All of her kittens from the second litter were adopted.
She had been adopted as a kitten and lived in her home for over five years but late last
fall of 2010 she was surrendered to the Winnipeg Humane Society supposedly as a senior cat to be put to sleep. We were called and rescued her at the last minute. She was suffering from chronic ear mites and fleas which had caused her to lose some of her fur. She also had
an abcessed top canine tooth which was removed along with a molar and her teeth were cleaned. She was treated for fleas, ear mites and a yeast infection in her ears. She has completely recovered from the dental surgery and her ears have healed and her fur has grown back.
Despite Miss Bruce's rough treatment, she bears no ill will towards humans and she has an exceptionally friendly personality. She is a very calm and affectionate girl and loves human companionship, being patted, held, brushed and generally fussed over. It may take a
bit of time for her to adjust to a new home as she likes to spend time in her “cave” (a kennel) to sleep in until she feels secure. She likes to sleep on top of the kennel and lie in a sunbeam in a window. She enjoys being pampered and she will let you know when she wants
attention and she will talk when she has some news to share. Miss Bruce must be adopted as an only pet to a special home. She is very territorial and does not tolerate other cats or dogs. She has all the love in the world to give to her new family.
Miss Bruce has
been adopted by her foster family where she has been a pampered puss. She enjoys being the Duchess of her domain and her perch in front of a big picture window looking out at the world. She enjoys cuddles with her forever family and the occasional run to chase her toys
through the house.
