Meet Puma: The Sweet and Gentle Girl Seeking a Cozy Home

- Puma has recently been diagnosed with chronic kidney failure.  We are seeking a hospice home for her with no adoption fee to allow her to live out the rest of her days comfortably and loved.  
- Gentle & Chatty: Puma is a lovely, reserved cat who is as sweet as she is vocal. She has a charming repertoire of chrrps and brrps and enjoys chatting and saying hello. While calm and content with her own space, Puma loves to interact and will greet you with her delightful meows.
- Affectionate: Puma adores ear, chin, and neck scritches. She’ll rub her head on your toes and boots, and loves gentle head bumps and kisses. While she doesn’t like being held for long or having her belly and legs touched, she’ll tolerate gentle brushing in these spots once she trusts you.

Behavior & Habits:

- Social with Guests: Puma is welcoming and affectionate with visitors. She’ll accept ear scritches from anyone and is known to visit overnight guests in bed for cuddles.
- Lap Time & Bedtime: Puma doesn’t sit on laps but will walk across you to get attention. She enjoys sleeping at the foot of the bed on a blanket and is a polite bedmate. She might get vocal in the morning when it's breakfast time.
- Playful & Active: Puma has little bursts of playful energy and enjoys playing with rope toys, fishing rods, and catnip-filled toys. She also gets playful at night, moving her toys around as she pleases.

Health & Care:
- Chronic Kidney Failure: Puma is currently managing chronic kidney failure and is on a special renal diet. She eats wet food 2-3 times a day and has dry food available for grazing. She loves Temptations treats and enjoys a small amount of dry food throughout the day.
- Litter Box & Scratching: Puma uses her litter box reliably and shows no interest in scratching furniture or scratching posts. She has a history of gentle behavior and no aggression, except for occasional vet-related stress.

Quirks & Special Traits:
- Unique Behavior: Puma has some adorable quirks, such as making biscuits on the floor while drinking from her water bowl. She also loves to "suckle" blankets and make tiny biscuits, standing with her paws turned out in a cute little ballet stance.

Why Adopt Puma?
Puma is a gentle, low-maintenance companion who would thrive in a relaxed home where she can enjoy her naps and occasional playtime. She’s perfect for someone looking for a sweet, chatty cat who will bring warmth and companionship to your life.
