Penelope 's Story

Hi there… my name is Penelope!<br/>I’m a beautiful calico lady with soft white fur covered in lovely orange and black spots, and I’m a senior girl looking for someone special to share my golden years with. I may be older, but my heart is full and ready for love.<br/><br/>My story didn’t start out easy. I spent a couple of years living behind a Chinese restaurant, and when I came to the sanctuary, I was feral and very unsure about people. To be honest… I did not like them at first. It took many years of time, patience, love, and food (especially food) to earn my trust. Lickable treats helped a lot, lots, and lots of them! Eventually, I learned that hands can be kind and that being petted actually feels pretty wonderful.<br/><br/>Because of my past, my future family needs to understand that I will hide at first. Moving into a new home is scary, and I’ll need time to feel safe. But once I do? I am incredibly sweet. I love being petted, sitting next to you, and soaking up all the love you’re willing to give. I’m known for striking a cute pose with my little paw held up, it’s kind of my signature move.<br/><br/>I am considered a special needs kitty. I have a condition called stomatitis, where my body attacks my teeth and gums. I’ve had all of my teeth removed (don’t worry, I eat like a champ, even dry food!), and I take steroids to keep me comfortable and pain-free. My medication will need to continue for the rest of my life, and it’s very important for my well-being. In return, I promise to be worth every bit of care.<br/><br/>I love lickable treats and will happily ask visitors for them. I also enjoy being brushed and need a little extra help so my fur doesn’t get mats on my back. I adore other cats and love snuggling with them, especially on cozy blankets.<br/><br/>I have a face you will absolutely fall in love with, trust me. I’m gentle, loving, and ready to spend my days being cherished the way I deserve.<br/><br/>You can come meet me any day between 1–5pm, even on holidays. Maybe you’re the person I’ve been waiting for all these years.<br/><br/>I have excellent litter box habits. My new perfect family NEEDS to understand that it WILL take me a while to adjust at first and I WILL hide as I settle in. Give me time, patience, and use food as a tool to get me out of my shell — I really am a wonderful cat.<br/><br/>I am fully vetted: spayed, microchipped, FIV & FeLV negative, and up-to-date on all my vaccinations. I require an indoor-only home and, as with all cats — absolutely no declawing.<br/><br/>If you are interested in adopting Penelope, please message us on Facebook at Furball Farm Cat Sanctuary or email us at FurballFarmCatSanctuary@gmail.com
