Whisper - located in NJ.
This beautiful medium hair girl found herself in a really tough spot. She was sick, dirty, and all alone on the street. She knew she needed help and followed a lady and her daughter home crying. Fortunately she picked the right person and she contacted us to assist.
Whisper had an extremely bad URI and yet she inhaled her food from day one. She was taken for multiple vet visits. Had fluids, multiple courses of antibiotics, a sedation exam for polyps (negative). She had a good bath like a champ and all her mattes combed out. She has been with us since March and is fully vetted and spayed. FIV/FELV negative. She's ready for her furever home. She has improved dramatically but occasionally has a sniffle or sneeze. For this reason we feel it would be best if she was in a single cat household. This will probably be something she will experience on and off regularly and could possibly infect another cat when symptoms present. This does not mean she can't live a very happy and healthy long life. We would be happy to explain more.
She is tiny and will stay a little girl. She is very dominant around cats and dogs at this time even though she could potentially live with dogs if introduced slowly and properly without any fear of spreading her intermittent sniffles.
She is a tough little one, but because of her small size and that she can get over zealous playing small children not advisable. Older children that are respectful and understand boundaries would be fine.
Whisper is very active and LOVES her toys. She enjoys brushing when you can get her to stay still. She needs someone that can redirect her to a toy if she gets too crazed ;) She allows her nails to be cut and when worn out is quite the snuggle bug. She craves attention and truly believes it's all about her. You will need to keep her entertained by changing out things to keep her mentally stimulated and busy.
She will need to have a relationship with a veterinarian if/when her congestion surfaces and a plan in place to keep comfortable.
What she REALLY needs is a family of her own!
