My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Lily!
Age: senior
Weight: 10 pounds (I'm just an itty bitty!)
Good with: adults
House trained: I use potty pads, but still have accidents sometimes. I'm working on being the best girl I can!
Crate trained: in my foster home I am gated in the kitchen if my foster parents go away.
Special needs: I can't hear a dang thing from a lifetime of chronic ear infections, and my ticker isn't that great, so I can't have some procedures that are recommended.
Let me give you a little back story about how I came into rescue. I was found left alone after my owner passed away. I was very scared and hungry! I'm working on trusting that people want the best for me. I'm still a bit timid and don't always understand that I'm not going to be hurt by humans, and they just want to love me. It takes me a bit to warm up, but foster mom says after months in foster care I'm really starting to enjoy butt scratches and car rides. I'm still not a fan of being picked up and my fear of it makes me a little snappy about it, but if you use a blanket to pick me up, I'm more comfortable with it. Foster mom says she can see my desire to be a loving pet! I have even started to show signs of wanting to play with her! I'd thrive in a home that is low key, where I can be the only pet, as I don't have many socialization skills with other pets. I'll need my forever people to help me understand that I'll always get fed, and work with me on some of my food guarding. I get super excited about meal times and will run in happy circles, but I also seem to think it might get taken from me. I'm absolutely going to need a lot of patience and understanding from my new family, but I promise that once I settle in, and we work together, I can be the best girl. I WANT to be the best version of myself for you!
