Geri's Story

Geri is a beautiful, 8-year-old, silvery-gray lady looking for her forever home! <br/><br/>Geri was one of four girls born to a feral momma in an enclosed porch of an old home. The elderly man who lived in the home brought all four of the girls into his large home and they had the run of the place. For 7-1⁄2 years, Gerri and her sisters lived very independently in the big house until her owner moved to a nursing home. <br/><br/>When this beauty came into foster care, she was so matted it wasn't possible to pet her except on the top of her head. Once shaved, she was so much more comfortable. Her initial veterinary appointment showed mouth inflammation, and she was scheduled for a dental consult and was diagnosed with stomatitis requiring 15 of her teeth be removed. She does wonderfully with just a few teeth -- enjoying both dry cat food and her much loved Fancy Feast Savory Centers wet food. <br/><br/>Geri enjoys human attention but is also independent and although brought up with three littermates, she doesn't interact with them much. She prefers to lay in the sun for her naps or sit at the top of the cat tree and watch the birds and squirrels for some "me time." <br/><br/>Even though she is now a mature lady, she still has her "zoomie" moments - chasing after and playing with small toys. She likes to be brushed on her head and back and is slowly getting used to being brushed on her chest and stomach - key spots to stay on top of, since that is where any matting is prone to start. Her foster has trimmed her nails, and although it is not Geri's favorite things, she does tolerate it. Her forever humans should be committed to helping her keep her beautiful coat looking its best. <br/><br/>Geri likes human interaction and will sit on your lap - especially when you are sitting at the computer. When she has had enough interaction, she will give a small grunt and jump down. <br/><br/>This pretty girl currently lives with her 3 siblings but doesn't interact with them very much. She would do great in a home with humans who work from home or are around a lot, and who are okay with a cat sitting on their lap when at the computer or when watching TV. Although she has enjoyed pets from a respectful six-year-old child, Geri would probably prefer a home with older, more mature children and no other pets. A cat tree by a window would be incredibly welcome - she loves to sleep at the top. <br/><br/>This beautiful lady has been through some upheavals and is so ready to live a cozy, loving life with her forever humans. If you're looking for a gentle companion to while away the days with this summer, Geri is your girl! <br/><br/>Interested in adopting or learning more about this cat?
