Here's what the humans have to say about me:
I am a VERY Calm, Laid-back, Super Sweet senior lass who is seeking a new home for my golden years. Read more below in Background.
I am a lap sitter! I will sit on your lap for HOURS - like I did on my Mum's husbands lap when watching movies, football games etc..so comfy!
I tolerate other cats well...in fact...here at the Pet Adoption Center, cats and kittens will come into my room and stretch out next to me. They are a comfort to me as I am to them.
I am known to be a great bug chaser too.
I LOVE to get attention....face, chin, neck rubs and really like to get brushed. While I have short hair, it is very dense and thick, and lots of fur comes out when brushed. It makes me feel so much better.
I use a scratching post.
On 22 September 2022, I was treated to a spay day! Boy, was that great - I was toweled dried and I LOVED it!
I am use to eating Friskies wet food.
I do get along with small dogs only! Quiet older kids or none preferred. My prior home was with a happily married couple - like the quiet in my advanced years.
For my new Pet Parents...be patient and give me time to adjust...I have been through so much...so many changes for me. Once where there was a constant 10 years of love for me....now, it is not there...I am without my familiar folks.... please give me your time....I will reward you with my continued unconditional LOVE.
Background:
I was returned to CRI and checked into the Pet Adoption Center on 17 September 2022 because my one and only owner/family had to check into an assisted living facility....a place where I could not join. I miss my family sooooo much.
I was adopted 3 October 2022. I will be living on the second floor with my new BFF, a grandmother. There lives on the first floor with the family a small dog. On 12 August 2023, they returned me as the wife who was deployed, was allergic to cats.
I was adopted that same day of my return on 12 August 2023, but because my new pet parents failed to follow how to conduct cat introductions, they returned me the following day on 13 August 2023. They had one other cat - age 2 - and they put us in the same room together. That other cat attacked and hissed at me - I was so stressed and full of anxiety. I was so glad they returned me.
I have been here since 13 August waiting for my fourth home for my golden years. I was placed on medical hold on 15 October and returned 11 November 2023. I was placed under observation for those four weeks - I feel better now. Had a 17 November vet appointment for a wellness exam and a senior blood panel done. Results due in by 21 November. I am a healthy gal with a strong heart and lungs and dental is good except that my roots to my rear molars are showing.
Come and visit me on the weekends during playtime at the Chesapeake PetSmart Store, Pet Adoption Center on Greenbrier Parkway:
Saturday, 1100 - 1700
Sunday, 1200 - 1700
Plus, you can always visit me any time the store is open Monday - Friday and call the contact number on my cage card to meet me.
