Here's what the humans have to say about me:
There has been no interest in sweet Pumpkin, and she is sad that her kittens are getting all the attention and she still hasn't found her "special someone!". It's heartbreaking, because when families come to visit with her babies, she will tap them with her paw, rub against their faces, and gaze at them as if asking "pick me!". She is really the sweetest girl. She talks with her beautiful, soulful eyes - you can just look at her, and she will run across the room and give you a kiss on your nose. To say she has the most amazing personality is an understatement - you'd have to meet her to truly understand. Pumpkin has been through a lot, including being dumped at a Tennessee kill shelter in her late pregnancy and being near death's door when her babies were only nine days old. She came to us severely emaciated, only 5lbs and a skeleton frame. She refused to eat and had to get IVs. But it didn't matter how weak she was at the time; she was the best possible mama to her babies and tried to feed them when she barely had any milk left. Through it all, Pumpkin has been so positive and sweet. Now, she is a chunky kitty and has gained 5lbs! She has had digestive issues in the past (loose stools) because she is sensitive to ingredients in canned food, so she is currently on a grain free raw food diet - Aunt Jeni's. She also has free choice grain free dry food, and she does fine with this. The raw food diet has been miraculous for her, and we haven't seen any digestive problems in a while! She is a super healthy girl. Pumpkin is amazing around children and is super interactive and friendly - in your lap purring, always! She also does well with our 8lb Shih Tzu and our other rescue kitties. Only one year old, she acts like a kitten herself and is very playful. She is dreaming of a cozy home where she can be spoiled and treated like a queen... she truly deserves the world!
Pumpkin was recently spayed and can leave for her new home in about a week after she has had time to fully recover from her surgery. She is spayed, tested neg. for FIV/FeLV, flea treated, dewormed, microchipped, and up to date on her vaccines. If you are interested in offering this amazing girl a forever home, please fill out our adoption application here: https://www.faithfulpawsrescue.com/adoption-application.html. For local families, there is no phone interview required. If your application is approved, then we can move forward with planning a visit. Once we receive your application, we will get back to you shortly!
