Rosie would be great as an emotional support cat!!! Rosie is about 5 1/2 years old. She came to me about 3 years ago. I found a great home for her. Unfortunately her owner passed away this past spring. Rosie is very lovable and devoted to her owner. She loves playing with her turbo scratcher. Rosie just wants a home with someone she can follow and be their lap cat. Rosie is an inside only cat. She should be the only pet in your home. Rosie has the most beautiful green eyes. She is also a very vocal cat. She greets you with “meows” each and every time. Because she has lived in several homes, she has great manners and doesn’t touch the furniture. Rosie would love to join your home and lay with you and have her tummy petted. She does not disappoint. Please open your home and heart to her.

Story
Sunny girl was born around the first week of June 2024. I rescued her from a neighbor that said she was in the middle of the street. She was about to be run over because her eyes were so infected she could not see anything. I brought her to the vet the next day. The vet was not sure that we would be able to save her eyes. I went home with 3 different meds for her eyes. After her meds her right eye has been saved. Unfortunately her left eye has been damaged. When I brought her in she was about two weeks. She was bottle fed for a couple of weeks. Sunny girl was not tame at all. Now when I have treats, she runs up to me and rubs against my ankles and lays down to be petted. Shes getting better everyday. She is very energetic and playful. Her favorite toys are her springs. She constantly is carrying one around. Sunny is black with white on her chest. Because of being so sick at the start, she is on the smaller side. Inside only Dog, cat and kitten friendly I’m sure you will love her

Story
SAFE HOME = NO ADOPTION FEE. Squeakers is roughly 7 1/2 years old. She is spayed, microchipped, NOT current on vaccines. Squeakers is 1 of 3 litter mates. Her sister is Gee Gee. Her brother has already been rehomed. She is my sisters cat. My sister unexpectedly passed away in April. She is a sweet cat. She is very shy. I believe she will come out of her shell if given time. We are working on her vaccines getting up to date. She would take some time to acclimate considering her loss of her owner that she has been w/ since she was a kitten. I am working on finding her cats safe new forever homes. I took the 2 older (16+) cats w/me back to Vermont. They all lived together w/ my sister since they were kittens w/ the exception of one of her cats who was found as an adult w/ her litter. Her sister Gee Gee would be a good partner. Her sister Gee Gee is also up for adoption. They have been together since birth. She is used to living indoors. She will come with a crate.

These pups are in Merced, California too!
