Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hello, my name is Fannie. As you can see I am an older girl. The vet doesn't really know my exact age. I am about 12 lbs. My owner whom I was with for about 3 years. Unfortunately she had to move into a nursing home, and I came back to my rescue group. Speaking of nursing homes, that is basically what I am looking for too. I don't walk fast. I can’t see too well, maybe shadows. I have to go to the bathroom fairly often. I still love to sleep a lot. I enjoy my food. I enjoy being held and cuddled. I like to feel the sunshine when I go out on pretty days. Since I am small and cant see to even get away from anything, I do need someone to go outside with me.
My rescue was not planning on getting me back, and they cannot give me the support I need. I really need someone home more often than not. I need to be able to go out frequently to use the bathroom. The vet said my heart sounds irregular, and they want me to have a very expensive test done. We found this out when my rescue took me in for a dental and checkup. They could not do the dental because I need the heart test. So in a perfect world, if someone could afford to take me to the vet that would be next level. I am ok with a happy, clean place, with warm arms to snuggle in. Oh, and I also need to be groomed occasionally and have a few bumps that make it a bit difficult, so any groomer has to know they are there, and to not leave me on the table as I will walk on off since I can't see. I hate my feet being groomed, and my rescue didn’t want to stress me out, so they are a bit fuzzy. Even if someone does not want to go forward with the extensive vet care due to my other conditions, as I said, I really just want attention and love and care in my later part of life. Even if that is a short time. Someone to spoil me for the time I have left. After you email my rescue, they will send you an adoption application. Once they get that back they will schedule a meet and greet so you can meet me in person. There is also up to a 2 week trial so you can make sure you fit my needs.
