Cat's Story

Cat is a gentle, beautiful 9 year longhaired girl who wants nothing more than a quiet retirement home where she can rest her tired body, curl up beside someone who loves her, and spend her days napping and watching TV. She doesn’t ask for much, just safety, softness, and a person who won’t give up on her.<br/><br/>Her past is heartbreaking. Cat’s previous owners couldn’t keep up with her long coat, and it became so severely matted that she had to be shaved down completely. Instead of helping her, they brought her to a grooming shop... and left her there. They said they couldn’t care for her anymore now that a new baby had arrived. Cat didn’t understand why she was suddenly unwanted.<br/><br/>She was also dangerously overweight, struggling to walk and unable to climb onto chairs. She had been neglected for far too long.<br/><br/>Since then, Cat has been living at the grooming shop, kind people have kept her safe, but it isn’t a real home. She greets customers every day, rubbing against their legs, hoping someone might stop and see her, really see her. She’s doing better now, her weight is under control, and she’s feeling healthier... but she still goes to sleep each night without a family of her own.<br/><br/>Cat will need regular grooming to keep her coat healthy, but the groomer who saved her has offered a discount to whoever adopts her. She must be the only cat in the home, and she cannot free feed or she’ll quickly gain weight again.<br/><br/>This sweet girl has been overlooked enough times in her life. She’s waiting for someone who won’t walk away.<br/><br/>Are you Cat’s hero—the one who finally brings her home?<br/><br/>Cat has been:<br/>spayed<br/>up to date with vaccines<br/>microchipped
