Simona (samaya (ne)obychnaya koshka) (Симона (самая (не)обычная кошка))

Mixed Breed · Female

Sometimes cats like Simona don't have a chance to become beloved pets. She is "uncompetitive" in the cruel market where even cute kittens and luxurious mixed breeds with hints of British blood are not needed. But how unfair it is! Because in this seemingly ordinary cat, there is a whole universe! Simona came to us a year ago in a very bad condition: her whole body was covered with scabs and sores - you couldn't touch her... Food was almost not absorbed, the cat was skin and bones. And you would know with what patience, with what unshakeable will Simona fought for her future. How much courage, endurance, and love of life she had! We think she can "borrow" all this to her future owner. Because this cat exudes peace, warmth, harmony, and some universal wisdom. She is waiting for someone who will see all this under the mask of "the most ordinary cat". Call:

У таких как Симона обычно нет шанса стать домашними и любимыми. Она “неконкурентоспособна” на жестоком рынке, где никому не нужны даже милые котята и роскошные метисы с намеками на британскую кровь.Но как же это несправедливо! Ведь в этой самой обычной, на первый взгляд, кошке - целый космос! Симона приехала к нам год назад в тяжелейшем состоянии: всё тело было покрытой корками и язвами - не прикоснуться… Пища практически не усваивалась, от кошки остались кожа да кости.И вы бы знали, с каким терпением, с какой несгибаемой волей Симона боролась за свое будущее. Сколько же в ней оказалось смелости, стойкости, жизнелюбия!Нам кажется, она может “одолжить” всё это в трудные минуты и будущему хозяину. Ведь от этой кошки просто веет спокойствием, теплом, гармонией и какой-то вселенской мудростью. Она ждёт того, кто разглядит все это под маской “самой обычной кошки”Звоните:
