Winnie is a sweet, long-haired calico with the softest expression and an even softer heart. During a brutal cold snap, she was found desperately trying to get into someone’s home just to stay warm. She was emaciated, sick, injured, and clearly had been struggling for quite some time. Despite everything she’s been through, Winnie has shown nothing but gentleness and quiet trust.
She is now safe in a loving foster home, where she’s finally warm, fed, and receiving the care she so badly needed. Each day, Winnie is gaining strength, healing, and letting her personality peek through. She’s a calm, sweet soul who seems grateful for every kindness and gentle touch.
Winnie still has some healing to do, but we are hopeful that with continued care she will soon be healthy, spayed, and ready to find her forever home. We believe there is a special person out there who will see her not for where she’s been, but for the loving companion she’s becoming.
If you have room in your heart for a resilient little survivor who just wants safety, warmth, and love, keep Winnie in mind. Her best days are still ahead 🐾💗If you are interested in adopting this pet, please go to www.midwestpetrefuge.com/adopt to complete an application. Completing a questionnaire on any other website does not submit an application to our rescue, you must complete one on our website. If you have any questions, please email us at adopt@MidwestPetRefuge.com
