My story

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

Dolly loves the sun on her whiskers and she's an amazing lap cat. This senior kitty has unique amber-flecked eyes that catch the sun so nicely. She is ready for adoption now to a mellow home where she can be the center of your universe. Dolly loves being brushed and petted and she expresses her appreciation with happy feet and a soft purr. This friendly senior would appreciate a loving home with a nice human to dote on her. Please don't think for one minute that adopting a senior pet won't be as fun as adopting a kitten! Dolly is here to remind you that she likes the wand toy, too.She is in wonderful shape at 15 years young.

Dolly is the oldest kitty in our adoption program (a healthy 15.5 years young) and this means she qualifies for our Seniors For Seniors program where we place healthy, loving pets with local senior citizens in need of companionship (WCAL picks up the tab in partnership with the Calistoga Pet Clinic). It's like a "forever foster" program for cats over 10 years and humans over 65 years in the upper Napa Valley. This program includes WCAL's full financial support for pet supplies, medical care as well as other assistance, plus a lifetime safety net just in case! She's also available for plain ole adoption if that's what you prefer or if you are located more than a short drive from Calistoga.
