Officer Michaela

Get to know Officer Michaela

My name is Officer Michaela—but don’t worry, I’m not here to issue any citations… unless it’s for not giving enough chin scritches.

I’m a white and calico mix with silky-soft fur and a big ol’ heart-shaped marking on my back—because I wear my love literally on my sleeve (or, uh, spine?). I was rescued from under a burning car during the ICE protests in downtown LA (yes, the burning car—what can I say, I have a flair for the dramatic). A kind officer saved me, and I’ve been honoring him ever since with my name and my ridiculously good looks.

After surviving flash bangs, tear gas, and the general chaos of street life, I’m understandably a little timid with loud noises and new places. But once I know I’m safe, I turn into a cuddle bug with a purr loud enough to rival a leaf blower. I love batting plastic coils, chasing rattly balls, and showing toy mice who’s boss. I’m also litter box certified, thank you very much.

If you’re patient, kind, and don’t mind sharing your cat tree (okay fine, my cat tree), I’d love to meet you. Fill out an application at dreamar.org and come see if I’m the brave little furball your heart’s been waiting for.

With purrs,
Officer Michaela
(Reporting for snuggle duty)
