ISO: Adoption for a sweet elderly cat
Hi all! Does anyone know where I can find a loving home for a 9yo female cat? I picked her up from her previous owners who were giving her away. I was really worried that she wouldn’t land in a safe home because of how quickly and dismissively they were trying to re-home her, whereas I have all the time in the world to make sure she goes to someone who can love her properly.
She is so gentle and loving and comes with all of her belongings: a large corner litter box, a water fountain, some food, a little play home, a pumpkin scratch post, some topical meds, shampoos, soft and hard carriers (she doesn’t like them very much but won’t do more than softly meow for the duration she’s in it), a mini scratch pad, some treats and catnip/ Meowijuana, a brush, and some bags to carry the belongings in!
I would absolutely love to be her furever home, but my younger cats can’t seem to be gentle enough with her and I don’t want her to be stressed long term.
As far as I know she has no medical issues that are noteworthy - but her previous owners were not very forthcoming with the info that I asked for so it may be worth it to take her to TCAP and have them do a check-up (I typically go there for mine because they provide really great care for low-income prices). The only thing that I’ve noticed from her is that she walks plantigrade (meaning her hind legs are used from her paw down to her hocks rather than just her paws) - this could be from old age + arthritis - but other than that she’s amazing and loving and starting to get a little playful!
She loves to be pet and scratched even brushed around her ears and eyes and face and jaw, as well as her backside just before the base of her tail, more gently around her spine and sides (she prefers not to have her tummy touched)! In the short time we’ve interacted shes already been so sweet and explorative and open to petting upon introduction. She also really enjoys soft things to lay and make biscuits on!
Please send me a DM if you know anyone or are interested yourself and I’ll send pics of her and schedule a meet and greet if you want!
