Pepper (Special needs - urinary care diet)

Pepper: Sweet Purr Machine Looking for Room to Roam and Someone to Love<br/><br/>Hi, I’m Pepper! I’m a petite, 6.8-pound black cat estimated to be between 9 months and 2 years old. I am neutered, vaccinated, house-trained, and an exceptionally talented purr machine!<br/><br/>I used to be someone's pet, but I came to Fitchburg Friends of Felines after developing serious urinary problems that my previous family could not afford to treat. I spent three days in the hospital and, shortly after being discharged, had to return for additional procedures. It was a difficult start, but I received the care I needed and am now ready for a much better chapter. <br/><br/>Unfortunately, I'm not getting along well with my foster's resident cats, and because they don't have a separate room just for me, I’m currently living in a large cage—otherwise known as my “jail.” I receive time outside my enclosure, but I would much rather have a home where I can stretch my legs, explore, and enjoy my freedom! I'm a young little guy, and I really need a place that has room for me to explore, and be free do all the cute things kitties like me do!<br/><br/>For the record, I maintain my complete innocence in all of this and would like to speak with my attorney.<br/><br/>Despite my unjust incarceration, I remain an absolute love bug. I adore people, enthusiastically enjoy petting, and purr up a storm whenever someone gives me attention. I’m not officially a lap cat yet, but if you lie down, I may settle right on your chest. I consider this close enough—and excellent progress toward my lap-cat certification.<br/><br/>Because of my history of urinary issues, I must remain on a urinary diet and should have consistent veterinary care going forward. A calm, predictable environment is also important, since stress can also contribute to urinary problems. My new family will need to follow my veterinarian’s feeding and care recommendations and monitor me closely for any signs of urinary difficulty. <br/><br/>(Friendly PSA: urinary care is critical for all cats, and it's really important for pet owners to be on top of any early signs there may be a problem. Keeping up on vet visits, especially when an early issue is detected, can literally be a life saver! Not to mention that it would avoid the need for major vet interventions, like what happened to me.)<br/><br/>I need to be the only cat in my home. I'm basically a teenager and want to rule the roost! My experience with dogs is unknown, and a dog-free home may be the safest choice. Although my history with children is also unknown, I would do best in a quiet adult home without babies, toddlers, or other sources of household commotion. What I really want is a person—or family—who will give me plenty of affection, help me feel secure, and let me enjoy life outside a cage.<br/><br/>I’ve already been through hospitalization, procedures, and confinement, all before my second birthday. My foster is doing everything possible to keep me safe, but I’m ready to be paroled into a loving home. I've been wrongfully imprisoned, and I'm innocent - I swear!!<br/><br/>If you can offer a sweet young cat some peace, proper care, and room to roam, please contact the authorities at Fitchburg Friends of Felines. My defense rests.<br/><br/>Personality traits: Affectionate, friendly, people-loving, sweet-natured, cuddly, gentle, devoted, chest snuggler, love bug, champion purr machine, wrongfully imprisoned<br/><br/>Fitchburg Friends of Felines facilitates a foster to adopt program that places the intended adoptee with the potential adoptive family.
