My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Willow is a sweet little girl who needs a home that can work with her needs. Several months ago Willow suffered a back injury that went untreated. By the time she came to us it had begun to heal but Willow now has some difficulty walking and at this time she cannot jump up or down onto anything. Willow is only about 1.5 years old so she's still young and quite active. She is looking for a family that can give her the chance to have the best life that she can.

At this time Willow doesn't require any special care, but due to the nature of her injuries it is unclear whether or not she'll ever regain "normal" use of her hind legs. In the short time that she's been with us it appears that her movement has improved, but it's tough to tell.

It is very important that Willow go to a home where she will be indoors-only becuase she is unable to properly run, or climb, or defend herself against the dangers of the outdoors. She must be in a home where she wont have to jump up or down onto anything (like her bed, or a counter to eat) because she can't jump. Willow will do best in a home with only one level (without stairs.) She is used to other cats & although she's had limited interactions with dogs, she does not appear to be afraid or nervous around them. Willow will do best in a home without young children that might handle her roughly (her back is still healing.) Although Willow has trouble with her hind legs, she uses her litter box without any problems.
