Cinderella

For most of Cinderella's life, the world was a blur -- light and shadow filtered through painful cherry eyes. <br/>People noticed the red first. They hesitated. They moved on.<br/>But look at her now!<br/>After surgery to repair her double cherry eye, the world no longer hurts to see. Cinderella sees you -- your outline, your face, your hand reaching toward her -- and when she realizes it's for her, she explodes into a wheezy little tap dance of joy. Front paws shuffle. Her whole sturdy body wiggles. Snorts pop out like celebratory trumpets. You will laugh. You won't be able to help it.<br/>Cinderella is seven years old and built like a velvet tank. When she leans into you, it's a full-body commitment. Sit down and she will climb aboard with intention, arrange herself carefully, and inform you -- gently but firmly -- that you are now furniture. Warm, beloved furniture. Soon she is asleep, snoring magnificently, punctuating her dreams with small, delighted snorts.<br/>Cinderella loves people with a kind of openhearted sincerity that catches you off guard. She does not play hard to get -- she plays impossible not to love.<br/>Because she spent so long navigating discomfort and limited vision, busy environments can still overwhelm her. She needs to be the only pet in a calm, predictable home. No dogs. No cats. Just her and her humans, discovering together how bright and vivid the world can be when it doesn't hurt.<br/>If your idea of happily ever after includes devotion, fuzzy snuggles, and joyful little snorts, come meet Cinderella.<br/>Animal Aid Society is located at 80 Butler Farm Road in Hampton, VA. Visiting hours are from 9am to noon, including weekends and holidays.<br/>Interested? Come for a visit any day of the week - 365 days a year between 9am - 12pm.
