Nutella is a domestic short haired, brown tabby, spayed female cat with an estimated date of birth of late July 2021. Nutella was live trapped from a managed cat colony in the Detroit Lakes, MN area in late fall 2021 before the brutal upper Midwest winter and snow storms. Nutella is a likely full sibling to Zoey, and half sibling/first cousin to fellow colony mates Cookie and Punkin. This group of cats are affectionately referred to as the "colony tabbies", and Nutella can easily be adopted with either of these colony mates if looking to adopt a pair of adult cats. Nutella is best suited in a home with another cat companion. Nutella is cautious but curious of new people so an adopter will need patience and understanding during the transition to a new home. She is friendly and affectionate once comfortable with you, but it is on her terms and her time table. Of the 4 colony tabbies, Nutella was the hardest "nut" to crack in terms of socialization and adapting to life as an indoor cat, but she is loving the climate controlled environment, guaranteed food source, and access to veterinarian care. Nutella is very food and treat motivated, especially with canned pate, and that is one way to win her heart with her favorite treats. Spayed; current on vaccinations; litter box trained; microchipped; and negative for both feline leukemia and feline immunodeficiency virus. Unknown with dogs or children.
