Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Dewlanna is a beautiful longhaired female Torbie/Tabby! She was found just outside of Evansdale, and was probably dumped. A kind lady took her in and contacted Evansdale animal control. Dewlanna is a wonderful Momma - she came into LHAR in mid-March 2023, with kittens just a few days old, and also ended up about a week later being a surrogate to a couple other abandoned kittens. When she came to her foster home, she was so afraid, and cowered if anyone tried to pet her, so holding her was out of the question. *** Fast forward to June 2023... Thanks to a very special young girl, Dewlanna started to come out of her shell and she finally let us pet her head and face, and within a short period of time she trusted her foster family enough to let them pet her all over! She started to enjoy life and really turned into an incredibly loving kitty and there was no turning back for her! .............................................................................................................. Dewlanna kittens have all been adopted! Dewlanna was spayed and was given her FVRCP and rabies vaccinations; she was microchipped and was tested for FeLV/FIV. Thankfully she was negative for Feline Leukemia (FeLV) but she did test positive for FIV. FIV is the Feline Immune Deficiency Virus, but don't let that scare you; you can research this topic online as there is a lot of valuable and interesting information to read through to learn about this virus. It is not easily spread and they can live in harmony with other FIV+ cats; however, you will need to keep an eye on her for any signs of illness as she would need to be seen ASAP by your veterinarian. The Iowa Humane Alliance noted on her medical paperwork that she had early stomatitis present and was missing all her incisors, as well as an ulcerated mass in her mouth due to bacteria in her mouth. It was removed when cleaned with chlorhexidine and she was given an antibiotic injection of Polyflex to help address dental concerns. Upon receiving that news, LHAR got her in to our local partner veterinarian office and she had several teeth pulled and other dental work done! She's been doing well and is not on any medication, and currently has no health concerns. She eats both hard and soft food. Dewlanna has been fostered in a home with lots of other kitties - from kittens to adults, and there are friends and family members - including little kids who visit often, so she's used to commotion and has decided to be a sweet and loving girl! She still isn't a real lap cat, but she loves to sleep right next to you and she LOVES attention when you first go to bed! She runs and plays with the cats/kittens and enjoys playing with toys, too! (Dogs are unknown) SO... If you have room in your heart and your home, please consider giving this beauty a loving home! Dewlanna's’s adoption fee is $85. Last Hope requires all pets in the adopters home are always kept current on vaccinations and are seen yearly for wellness exams with the family veterinarian, and they must be kept as indoor pets only. Potential adopters must be at least 21 years old to adopt an animal. If you are interested in meeting sweet Dewlanna, please fill out an application on our website at www.adopthope.org.
