My story

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

Cookie is an 8-year-old beauty  accepting applications for her furever home. She came to PAWs after her original owner suggested euthanasia due to her weight, grooming issues and reportedly cranky personality.  After a complete check up the vet determined her problems were completely treatable. She arrived at her foster home weighing nearly 20lbs. She was given space to decompress and in the past 8 weeks she has integrated beautifully into the house and lost 2 pounds!



Cookie has a unique and beautiful dilute coat and a cute meow, and currently lives with a mellow dog and two cats. She is not a lap cat (yet), but she likes to be near people and enjoys being petted and brushed. She is content sleeping in her bed or a sun ray. She would do best with an experienced cat owner and could be an only cat or join others with a proper introduction and a safe place to enjoy her meals. Cookie is not suited for a home with small children as she can be a bit grumpy and prefers a calm environment. 



She requires a committed owner to help with her weight management and grooming needs. She is currently on prescription weight management food, and she will require sanitary trims as she cannot always clean herself properly due to her size, but this may resolve with weight loss. She has no issues using the litter box.



Cookie seeks someone who will understand, respect, adore and love her while giving her the space she needs. She knows she is fabulous!  Are you the person who knows it too and will give her a second chance?
