My story

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

Meet Paris- Paris was surrendered to us on 5-2-2024, Thankfully, she came with some paperwork from her adoption at young Williams from years ago. The original adopter was in the nursing home at time of surrender ( owner did not surrender). Once we spoke with owner on the phone, we verified that the person on the phone was indeed the owner, we made a promise to not adopt her out. The owner would be adopting her back.. we understood the situation, so we kept her at the rescue and had her in foster care off and on.

We took Paris to see her human for visits and had phone calls and a few emails with their caretaker. Upon an email, we were told that the owner has decided to fully relinquish the rights of ownership and does not want her back at all.

This is very sad and breaks our hearts every day, because she deserves to be in a home environment that will fit her needs!

Upon learning more about her, we have discovered that she was diagnosed with cushings in August of 2022, and also has arthritis.

>>>>Her ideal place where she can relax and enjoy her days, would be quiet, calm and somewhere that has no steps. A ramp would be best. She will need help getting into a vehicle for appointments once a month to get to her vet for a librela shot.

Paris is also on a compound medication that is given at breakfast and supper as well as 1 Dasuquin at breakfast. she loves to lay beside you on the floor and under your desk while you work! We are not sure how much she has left in her, however, she is still eating fine, drinking fine and seems to be enjoying life to the fullest!

You will notice that her her legs are "bent" a little more than normal and that is from the cushings taking its toll. Think of it like you always pulling your hand backwards to your arm and keeping it there all the time...the pressure you feel, is what she feels all the time!

She still likes to go for short walks ( she begs to go out to the play yard for her daily strolls ).

We are searching for either a forever foster or someone that would like to adopt her and give her the best life she can possibly have.
