My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

This 13 year old, 13 pound senior found herself at the shelter when her owner had to move into assisted living. She was really struggling at the shelter, and luckily we were able to get her into a foster home. Here is what her foster has to say so far:
"Vickie is doing really well! She still hasn't met our cats because we wanted her to be trusting in us, but she's been making strides recently. She comes up to us when she wants affection, she's very open about when she's hungry, lol. She's super sweet, she establishes boundaries by meowing. She's very gentle, and she is now eating a mix of wet food and dry food.
This week, Vickie went to the groomers, she got a bath, nail trim, brush, the whole nine yards!

I'm hoping she will be adopted! She deserves that second chance at a forever home"

Vickie would love a home that's willing to give her time to grieve and adjust to life with a new family. If you're looking for a sweet, calm kitty, she could be just the right fit with decompression time.
