My story

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

NAME: Eleanor
BREED: DSH
BIRTHDAY: 2021
ADOPTION FEE: $75

 

As usual, we had no room for cats. Every space in foster care was full, and funds were low. But when we saw a Facebook post about a mommy cat and her two babies in danger, we had to at least ask for help. All we knew from the post was that the owner of the cats was threatening to kill them if they were not rehomed in two days: what we did not know is that the little family was being kept in a hot shed, and were dehydrated and underweight. Thankfully some friends stepped up to foster, and the trio was saved from inevitable death- either directly at the hands of their owner, or slowly from neglect.
​
Eleanor is the beautiful mother of two beautiful kittens. She is shy at first but somehow has maintained a sweet demeanor despite her unimaginable start to life. She loves to play, and her favorite thing is catnip.  Eleanor's kittens have both been adopted, and how it's her turn: she is fully vetted and ready for her forever home!

More about this rescue

Good Old Tails Senior Animal Rescue is a non-profit organization dedicated to saving the lives of senior dogs and cats in the Southern Pennsylvania/Northern Maryland areas.
We believe that senior animals deserve loving, caring homes where they will be taken care of the rest of their days.

Good Old Tails Senior Animal Rescue was founded in 2015 by a small group of animal lovers. Years of rescue showed us that the senior demographic in shelters is often the most overlooked and highly euthanized. These animals are discarded because of failing health, new pets in the family, a lack of time for attention and care, and countless other reasons which Good Old Tails finds deplorable. Pets are a commitment for life, not until they are an inconvenience. We are dedicated to saving as many senior dogs and cats as we can, and providing them with love and care so that they can live out the rest of their days with dignity and happiness. Some of these animals may never leave our rescue, and their foster families will be the ones to say the last good-bye. Others will go on to find families of their own. Whatever the outcome, we have made the promise to them that they will never again be alone.
