Rita Mamacita (3 extra toes)

by Julie
(Beaverton, Oregon)

Rita Mamacita was found, as a very tiny kitten, in an apartment complex. In spite of several unsuccessful attempts to find her owner, Julie and Eric took her in an have owned her for 9.5 years.

Rita has tufts on her ears, feet, and her rear-end, and she's polydactyl -- two extra toes on one foot and one extra toe on the other foot. She's shy around new people, but she is the most warm, loving, sweet, loyal kitty with her owners. She sleeps in strange places and loves to cuddle. She speaks when spoken to and she has a strange trill in her voice.

We noticed that she has two coats of hair (top white/black) and a thick gray undercoat. She loves water and sometimes eats with her paws. People ask if she's Maine Coon all of the time.

She's a gift to know and love. We love Rita.
