My story

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

Penny is a 9 year old domestic shorthair. She is spayed and up to date on vaccinations.

Penny can be quite affectionate with the right person after she warms up to you. That typically means a period of being aloof with her, being calm, and waiting for her. She's shy until then.

She has anxiety and has been on medication for roughly a year. It helps, but she really needs a home with no other cats/dogs and patient human companions.

When anxious she will scratch her hind legs (typically roughly) which leads to thinking or nearly bald spots. Her old vet in MD, and most recently her vet at Little Paws in Hanover, has done tests, and she seems fine medically speaking. Just anxious. So a healthy cat otherwise. She's a healthy weight, and has never had any health issues otherwise.

Penny would be a great cat for someone in a quiet home with understanding human companions who can work with her anxiety long enough to see her cute, playful personality. She's 9, but looks younger, and has cute, playful quirks.

If you are interested in meeting Penny, please contact Eric at 240-878-0940.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Visit us here... https://heavenlypaws.wordpress.com/adoption-process/

The adoption fee is $120 for kittens.
Adults vary from $40-$100.

The adoption fee covers them being tested for leukemia and aids, their initial vaccines(distemper), a vet check-up, treatment for fleas, worms, parasites, ear mites, and their nails trimmed. If the cat/kitten is old enough they may have more done for them, such as, rabies vaccine and second distemper vaccine.

Also if they are old enough, they will be spayed or neutered prior to adoption. If they are not spayed or neutered prior to adoption, you will be given a spay/neuter certificate for one of our local vets. If you choose to use your own vet, we will take $20 off the adoption fee.

Our fees are very reasonable, considering you get about $300-500 worth of pet care when you adopt from us. Since we are non-profit, any donations and adoption fees are a tax-write off for you.
