My name is Cali Sue!

Apply to Adopt Me!

Cali Sue is a gentle, quiet and laid back gal. This sweet senior came to us as a stray and is estimated to be about 15 years old. She weighs only 6 pounds but she looks bigger due to her soft, extra-fluffy fur. This girl will follow you around the house with her head tilted at a quizzical angle. She arrived at Lil Rascals with an ear infection. It is possible she suffered without treatment for quite a while and, as a result, left her with a permanent head tilt. The infection is gone and she now has good balance plus good range of motion in her neck. She may tilt her head now simply out of habit. Cali Sue gets along great with her foster siblings. The only time you will hear Cali Sue make a sound is when she’s ready to eat. She will let you know with a little bark and she gets very excited as she watches you prepare her food. Her tummy is sensitive so she does best on a bland diet and only eats soft food. She is hard of hearing and is slightly vision impaired but is still independent and gets around easily on her own. She likes to snuggle in her bed but she also enjoys exploring outside. A home with a securely fenced backyard would be ideal for Cali Sue. She walks well on leash but she doesn’t go far or fast. After she gets to know you, she will sit in your lap for attention. She enjoys having her ears rubbed and her back scratched. Cali Sue needs to go outside every few hours to avoid indoor accidents. Overnight it’s best to put her bed into a confined area with a pee pad nearby. She could also wear a diaper overnight. Cali has a grade 4 of 6 heart murmur, dental disease and possibly the beginnings of kidney disease. Due to her age and heart murmur, our vet advises against spay/dental surgery. Cali Sue has a lot of love and companionship to give to the right person. She would love to be your quiet, low energy best friend. We will adopt her to an all-adult home only. If you live in the Central Florida/Orlando area and believe you have the perfect forever home for this sweet senior, please complete an application and tell us more about your family.
