Meet Yemaya! This female cat is searching for her perfect home. She loves to eat, so you can always count on her being around when it's mealtime. Yemaya is shy and timid, but with a patient family who gives her lots of love and attention she will open up and show off her true personality. She is bonded with Binx, so if you are looking for two cats they would be the purrfect pair! Yemaya needs an understanding family who will take the time to get to know her and let her come out of her shell in her own time. If you think Yemaya could be the one for you, come meet this lovely lady today!
