Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi, I’m Grant, but my friends also call me “Gramps.” ❤️
I’m a 15-year-old senior gentleman with a soft heart, a sweet spirit, and a big desire to spend my golden years in a home where I’m truly cherished.
My story started out rough. I was abandoned at an emergency clinic...thin, hurting, and so very tired. I had a large sore, dental disease, and a painful eye condition. It was clear I’d gone without proper care for a long time… especially hard for an older guy like me.
But everything changed when C.A.R.E. stepped in. They saw past the pain, took me in without hesitation, gave me the medical care I desperately needed, and placed me in a warm foster home where I could finally rest safely.
And now? I’m feeling better every day and showing everyone who I really am.
I greet every single person I meet with my best senior-cat charm. I’m very food-motivated (okay, extremely food-motivated!) and will happily eat anything and everything put in front of me.
I don’t love being held but that doesn’t mean I’m not affectionate. I adore rubbing my head on things, leaning in for snuggles, and cozying up next to my humans. When I’m not soaking up love, I’m usually doing what I do best: sleeping… and then sleeping some more.
Oh, and I have a funny little quirk: I wag my tail like a dog. Yep just a happy, friendly old cat with a tail that likes to get in on the action.
I’m simply searching for a calm, loving home where I will never be forgotten or left behind again. If you’re looking for a gentle, grateful soul who wants nothing more than comfort, kindness, and steady companionship, I’m your guy. I'd love to be home for the holidays.

Additional adoption info
See our process and policies on our website.
https://carenorthshore.org/adoption-information/
Our fees include a full medical exam by a veterinarian. This includes a Feline Leukemia and FIV (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus) test for cats, Rabies and Distemper Vaccines, deworming and Spay/Neuter. Dogs receive a Heartworm Check, Spay/Neuter, Rabies and Distemper Vaccines, Canine Flu Vaccine, deworming, and Kennel Cough preventative. Our modest adoption fees do not cover the procedures and vet work that we provide the animals. We fundraise to make up the difference. Any ongoing medical needs that C.A.R.E. is aware of are explained fully, (including daily medicine costs), to the potential adopter, and become the responsibility of the adopter.
