Dorothy's Story

Dorothy’s journey has been nothing short of incredible. Once living in a now-demolished building on 3rd Street in Albany, she was left to fend for herself in a vacant lot after the city cleared the area. That same block was home to Uncle Henry and Toto too—fellow Whiskers of Oz alumni who’ve also been given a second chance.<br/><br/>When we found Dorothy, she had an injured tail that required amputation. But don’t worry—she’s doing beautifully now and carries herself with quiet grace. While she may not have a tail, she has plenty of heart.<br/><br/>Now safe and settled, Dorothy has gently assimilated into shelter life. She coexists peacefully with other cats but tends to do her own thing—often found perched in a cozy corner, calmly observing her surroundings like the quiet guardian of the room. She’s a gentle soul who appreciates peace and would do best in a calm home without small children, with someone who has cat-experience.<br/><br/>Dorothy may not ask for the spotlight, but she’s ready to be someone’s leading lady. Could that someone be you?<br/><br/>Approx. DOB: 09/05/2022<br/><br/>==> Please do not email<br/>==> Please do not click on "Ask About"<br/>==> If you are interested in adopting or have questions, please apply at www.ewhiskers.com/apply<br/><br/>Whiskers cats and kittens are ALL rescued from the surrounding CAPITAL DISTRICT. All of Whisker's cats and kittens are spayed or neutered, age appropriately vaccinated and tested for FELV/FIV prior to adoption.
