Meet Dolores! Dolores is a sweet and spirited little lady who’s been through a lot recently. She was possibly hit by a car, which resulted in serious injuries—including a broken jaw that required surgical repair and the amputation of her front right leg. Despite it all, Dolores has shown incredible resilience and has adapted beautifully to life as a tripod. Her strength and charm shine through every day! From the moment she arrived in her foster home, Dolores made herself comfortable and quickly became part of the family. She’s curious and loves to explore, so her forever home should be mindful of small spaces where she might sneak into or get stuck. She’s not one to hide—Dolores enjoys being in the same room as her people and will likely bring that same warmth to her new home. Dolores is a toy enthusiast! She adores catnip, kicker toys, and peacock feathers are a big hit too. She’s very food motivated, which makes her easy to train, but she’s also working on shedding a few pounds to stay healthy and mobile as a tripod. A cozy, heated cat bed is her favorite spot to relax, and she doesn’t mind a gentle brushing session. While Dolores enjoys human company, she also values her independence. She may occasionally seek out a warm lap, but more often she prefers her own comfy seat. She sleeps deeply and can startle easily—gently blowing air on her is a good way to wake her up. Around mealtime, she becomes quite vocal—possibly louder than she realizes, as she may not hear herself well! Dolores is a unique and loving companion looking for a home that appreciates her gentle spirit, playful nature, and courageous heart. Could you be the one to give her the forever home she deserves?
