I’m Marble, a 15-year-old brown tabby who’s lived a long life full of quiet moments and soft places… until recently. When my family moved away and left me behind, I didn’t understand why the door never opened for me again. A kind neighbor noticed me waiting and brought me to Animal Ark, giving me a second chance I didn’t even know I still had. I’m a gentle soul — shy at first, but I warm up when someone speaks to me softly. I’ll even chat back a little. I move carefully around other cats, keeping to myself, and my past with dogs or children is a bit of a mystery even to me. What I do know is this: senior cats like me make the most loyal, loving companions. We don’t need much — a warm lap, steady meals, and a cozy spot to curl up for our many naps. In return, we give a kind of quiet love that fills a home in a way only time and age can teach. I dream of a peaceful adult home, one without small children or other animals, where I can spend my golden years feeling safe and cherished. I might even thrive in a foster home if you’d like to open your heart in that way. If something in my story speaks to you, come meet me. I’m waiting, hoping the next person who reaches out will be the one who brings me home.
