Spirit's Story

That’s the Spirit!<br/><br/>Spirit arrived at EHS over two years ago—she was scared, undersocialized, and ready to stay that way. But this girl’s got a can-do attitude and a sprinkling of sass that serves her well when the going gets tough. With the help of dedicated volunteers, Spirit has become a gentle, confident purr machine, and a fan favourite at the shelter. Now she and her steady man Julius are determined to settle down in a loving forever home. How’s that for spirit?<br/><br/>ABOUT SPIRIT<br/>- At shelter<br/>- Spirit loves to play at night, taking advantage of her alone time and coming out of her cubby to explore.<br/>- During the day, she is generally found curled up and cozy with her best buddy, Julius. <br/>- Spirit is a sweet, calm girl; she’s soft and sometimes sassy! <br/>- Originally skittish, she’s now a friendly, relaxed cat who loves to be pet by hand on her full body, but especially her cheeks, forehead, and back. She actually looks a little wistful when the attention stops and may give a gentle head-butt to get the love going again! <br/>- Spirit has the loudest purr—volunteers call it a pigeon purr—which not only tells everyone how happy and content she is but also soothes the people and cats around her. And she purrs a lot!<br/>- When the shelter is quiet, Spirit will come to the front of her kennel and watch the world go by. <br/>- She enjoys playing with wand toys with the volunteers.<br/>- If there are loud noises, or if she is approached too quickly, she may retreat.<br/>- She has FIV, which is a virus that weakens the immune system of a cat but is not transmissible to humans or other species.<br/>- A cat with FIV may be overlooked, but with routine vet care and a loving home, cats who have FIV can live a long, healthy life.<br/>- Spirit is spayed, microchipped, dewormed, flea-treated, SNAP-tested for FIV/FeLV, and has received core vaccinations.<br/><br/>SPIRIT'S IDEAL HOME<br/>- Spirit enjoys the company of other cats, which helps her gain confidence.<br/>- Spirit is part of a bonded pair and MUST be adopted with her partner, Julius, who also has FIV.<br/>- She would benefit from a calm, quiet environment, preferably without small children or dogs.<br/>- Spirit does not require medication for FIV but vet checkups twice a year are recommended.<br/><br/>This spirited girl is ready for life’s next great adventure.
