Not good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
"Adoptable Dewy (who has a sponsored adoption fee to an approved applicant!) is certainly talking to us more and lets us know when he wants a belly scratch. His absolute favorite pastime is watching the woods out the window. He is so funny to watch as he runs from window to window following squirrels and chipmunks go by. Our hummingbird feeder is another favorite of Dewy's to monitor." -Dewy's foster mom. He will do best in a quiet house with no children or other pets. He still startles at quick movements or loud sounds. Once he is comfortable, Dewy loves to play with crinkly toy balls, his catnip mixes, and cat dancers and he sure is becoming more and more comfortable. He grooms himself well as he likes to look his best! Eating and using the litterbox are not issues at all with good boy Dewy. Whoever adopts Dewy will need to have a lot of patience. While it takes a long while to earn his trust, he is so worth it. Dewy is about five-and-a-half years old and is neutered. Dewy is living in a foster home! To adopt this fluffy handsome hunk, please email us at pets@michianapets.org.

Good with dogs, Needs special attention, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
You don't often hear of a cat surviving after being hit by a car. Well, Spot did. Although, now she is paralyzed and has very little function in her back legs. (Sidenote! Email us at pets@michianapets.org to request an application. Spot is in a foster home!) We were not sure if Spot was going to be able to make it through her trauma. But each day, she was getting stronger, healing more and was proving to be the absolute sweetest and most loving girl. We were so grateful to be able to give her a second chance. Spot needed a foster home because the kennel-life was not a fit for her. Her foster family is amazing and they created a bag that goes around her waist so she can "walk" around without getting abrasions and wounds on her back legs. Spot was not remotely interested in a wheelchair; her little drag-bag allows her to be just as mobile and she is totally succeeding! Here is a note from her foster mom: "Spot is a one-year-old spayed bundle of love and curiosity. Spot is an incredibly affectionate girl who wants nothing more than to be by your side (or better yet, in your lap). She will happily curl up for hours, purring and chatting away with her soft, sweet meows. She truly loves to “talk.” Spot’s favorite toys are anything with feathers, and she’s wonderful with dogs of all sizes. Despite losing the use of her back legs, Spot hasn’t lost her joyful spirit or her zest for life. She has adapted beautifully and gets around with ease, always eager to explore, cuddle, and make friends. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will fill your home with love, warmth, and a little chatter, Spot is your girl. She is full of curiosity, joy, and nonstop purrs. Please adopt the happiest little survivor. She is ready to roll right into your heart." -Spot's foster mom. Her adopter will need to be able to express her bladder but please don't let that deter you! Many of us had no idea how to until we were taught and now it is so easy! We can teach you, too! Of course, Spot is the perfect girl so she makes everything easy on us.
