My story

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

Tiny little Lois is approx 11-12yrs old and she weighs just a little over 7lbs. She is very sweet and would really love a home that will let her just relax and feel loved. She was originally removed from an abusive, neglectful home that did not nurture her or take care of her medical needs. We have been able to get her dental needs taken care of and she is spayed and vaccinated. She does still need to see an eye specialist so we are looking for a calm, loving foster home until she can see the specialist. Although she see just great, one eye is a little swollen. She receives eye ointment every day and it seems to be working to reduce the swelling, but we want a specialist to confirm the future course of treatment. Lois is very calm and easy going so she’d be the perfect companion for a senior person. She does like to go outside and explore so a small fenced yard would be ideal. She uses inside potty pads, too. Although she can hear, her hearing is not as sharp as it used to be. She’s very smart and adjusts to a new environment quickly so you hardly notice that she is hearing impaired. She is wonderful with all people although an easy going adult only home or with kids over 14yrs old would be best. She’s also great with all other animals. During foster, all medical expenses and supplies are provided.
