My story

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

HOW TO ADOPT: This cat is participating in our Shelter Cat Getaway foster program, which gives cats a vacation from the shelter and lets them enjoy home life while they wait to be adopted. To schedule a time to meet this cat, please contact Mary at mmccarroll@arl-iowa.org



- VERY friendly and affectionate cat



- Not a fan of toys, but loves cozy cat beds



- Likes to "swim" - she will lay on her back and paw at the air - too adorable!



- Doesn't have the mobility to climb on anything, but likes to be picked up and placed on beds & couches



- Needs an easily accessible litter box



- Looking or a more mature home; young, busy children are not a good fit for her



- She will thrive in a calm, relaxed environment



- This cat has shown symptoms of uncoordinated walking, mild head tremor, and difficulty with depth perception (more info at ARL)



All adoptable cats and kittens are spayed/neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccinations (rabies and FVRCP as appropriate for their age)
