Josie

Josie came to us as a very sick stray, and to be honest, she did not appreciate all the medicating that came with getting her healthy again. She held a grudge against the humans involved, and for a while she wasn't the friendliest girl in the room. She wasn't mean just wary, guarded, and very sure that we were not to be trusted.<br/><br/>But Josie has spent the last six months quietly rewriting her own story.<br/><br/>Somewhere along the way, she decided people aren't so bad after all. Now she's a lap cat, seeking out attention, choosing affection, and warming up to everyone around her. It's been a slow, steady transformation, and watching her open up has been one of the most rewarding parts of her time here.<br/><br/>Josie does have a bit of a chronic eye drip, which isn't uncommon for cats who've spent time outdoors or in shelter environments. We expect it may improve once she's in a stable, low‐stress home.<br/><br/>She seems to do well with other cats and does fine around dogs, too.<br/><br/>Josie is ready for a home that appreciates a cat with a past, a personality, and a whole lot of potential. She's already done the hard work of learning to trust again -- now she just needs someone to love.<br/><br/>Adoption fee: $75 <br/>Apply to adopt at: www.midwestpetrefuge.com/adoptIf you are interested in adopting this pet, please go to www.midwestpetrefuge.com/adopt to complete an application.
