Manako, known for her striking eyes, is a confident tabby-and-white cat who lives life on her terms. Abandoned but unbowed, her eyes demand honesty and respect. A master of boundaries, she seeks affection when desired and warns with a growl if limits are crossed. For those who respect her rules, she offers loyalty and affection. Manako prefers humans over cats, and her dominance requires careful integration in multi-cat homes. She thrives with experienced adopters who understand her assertiveness and complexity.
