Sesame's Story

Hello, my name is Sesame! I’m a former mommy who’s ready to be the baby of your family! <br/><br/>In May of 2025, on the first 80 degree day in Frankenmuth, somebody dumped me outside Pet Angel in a teeny tiny cage. Next to the cage, they left a rubber maid tote fully closed with my 6 6-week old kittens inside it. When the volunteers showed up for the evening shift, they found us, and quickly brought us inside to safety. Pet Angel named me Sesame, and my 6 babies after Sesame Street Characters (Grover, Elmo, Rocco, Bert, Ernie & Snuffy!) We went off to foster care, where we were safe and sound while I raised and weaned my babies, and we came back to Pet Angel when they were big enough to be without 24 hour care. I was told I was such a good mommy, and I loved being with my kittens. I weaned them, so Pet Angel separated me so my milk could dry up and I could get fixed. I recovered from my spay, got my stitches removed, and got all my shots and an FIV/FELV test done, and now I live in a free roam room with other kitties my age! My sons are getting ready to go up for adoption, but I’m ready to find my own forever home where I can be the baby of the house! <br/><br/>I love to play with toys. I zoom around the room after springs and crinkle balls! But when I finally tucker out, I love to test out all the beds to find the softest one to lay on. I am a medium haired cat, so I’m not fully fluffy, but I’m also not fully sleek. My tail however is fluffier than the rest of my body. I’ve been told I am VERY soft when you pet me! I am a big fan of cat treats and wet food, I enjoy wrestling with my roommates Cornelius and Thumbelina, and I like to be inside hidey holes and cat tunnels! I’m on the smaller side for an adult cat, so when humans come directly at me, I get a little freaked out and scurry away. But once you get down at my level, and I realize you’re not coming at me to hurt me, I warm up to you! I am a bit stand off-ish and nervous, and get along great with other cats. I am gentle and quiet.<br/><br/>I do have a small health condition, and I am hoping that this does not scare away any potential owners, but helps me find the best family who will give me all the care I may need in my life. In the end of July 2025, one of my kittens Snuffy suddenly passed away. One day he was sick, so Pet Angel took him immediately into the vet, and the next day he was gone. At first, The vet thought the symptoms looked like pneumonia. This prompted Pet Angel to take the rest of my kittens into the vet to be checked out. Upon further investigation of my kittens, our vet discovered that my kittens had enlarged hearts and the vet was concerned about a heart condition called HCM. In September of 2025, my remaining 5 kittens and I went into the vet to get ultrasounds done of our hearts to check to see if we had HCM. This test revealed two things: I do not have HCM, but I do have an enlarged heart. So, what does this mean? This means I am at risk for developing HCM later in my life. My future family will need to take me to the vet every 6 months to have the vet check my heart and ensure its still functioning properly. If for some reason my heart seems different at one of these vet checks, my family would need to have the vet do a second heart ultrasound to see if I have developed HCM. In the case that I do, I would need to go on HCM medication. However, as of right now, this is not something I need. The only requirement I need right now is a vet check up every 6 months. My future family just needs to understand that in the future, I may need some additional medical attention. <br/><br/>I am almost 2 years old (My birthday is November of 2023) and I am hoping to have a indoor-only home full of love, toys, and adoration. I dedicated months of my life to raising my sons, and now I’m ready to be adored by my own family and be their baby. I understand that an enlarged heart and potential heart condition later down the road may be a reason potential adopters don’t consider me. However, to be fair, any cat you adopt could have a heart condtion that went undetected. Pet Angel has taken extra steps in fundraising the money to do the heart tests for me to ensure that you- my hopeful future owners- are aware of this condition so you can give me the care I require to give me a long lasting, healthy life. Please don’t let my enlarged heart be a factor in why you don’t consider me, but instead know that my enlarged heart just means I have more of a heart to love you with. <br/><br/>I am fixed, microchipped, up to date on all my shots, and am negative for FIV/FELV. I get along with other cats great, and I would get along with older kids, as I am a bit of a stand-offish cat. I would not do well with alot of people in the home, as I am a little shy. I have not been tested one-on-one with a dog, but my former foster had a dog and when I did see him I wasn’t afraid, so I would most likely get along with a dog with a proper and slow introduction. I need a strictly indoor only home, and due to my heart condition I am not a cat who should travel, so I’m hoping to find a family that will keep me home, outside when I go to the vet. I really hope to find a family who won’t be afraid of my enlarged heart or potential future development of HCM.
