Fate brought Holly to Animal Rescue just in the nick of time – she was saved from scheduled euthanasia with minutes to live. Her foster mom, a longtime volunteer with ARCF, adopted her and they lived happily together for the past 3 years. Recently though, this kind lady had to move to an assisted living apartment where she could not bring her furry companion along.
Holly took a week or so to consider and embrace her new living situation, but is now thriving in foster care and ready for a home of her own.
When approached, she marches in place, kneading her paws in anticipation that someone will sit with her and love her. She purrs on her foster mom’s lap, and in the evenings, foster dad lies on the floor with Holly while she kisses his face. She loves being combed and she has excellent litter box habits. Holly would do best in an adult-only household with no other pets.
Holly tends to feel insecure in new surroundings and it may take her a week or two to adjust to her new home once she is adopted. We hope that the right person will want to give her a chance to show her best qualities.
Holly had a thyroid condition that has been treated and cured (no medication required). She is in good health, and at the age of nine, her vet concurs that she has many years yet to enjoy life. She is of course spayed, vaccinated and has tested negative for FeLV and FIV.
