Story
My story: I was lost or abandoned in the cold winter near the south side of Waterloo. I couldn’t fend for myself very well, despite palling around with other community cats. I sought help from some kind humans, and under their care, I have bloomed into a healthy, outgoing pet. Even though I am a little shy at first, I will melt into a purring muffin if you pet me or scratch my ears. My ideal forever home would keep me warm and fed, offer toys, and above all, provide lots of petting. I would be open to a home with other pets, provided the gradual introduction steps any pet-pet introduction should entail. About me: 12-18 m.o. spayed female DSH Litter trained (perfect record!) Clean and independent Over-the-top sweet personality (veterinarian-endorsed "sweet girl") FIV-negative Up-to-date on all vaccines/boosters No fleas or worms Soft coat Bonus: orange tail tip

She is a sweet loving cat. She loves to be petted. She also likes to stare outside the window at the birds when the weather is nice and takes a lot of cat naps. She just turned 6 years old. She gets along with my 2 Chihuahua dogs.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.FIV PositiveJerry spent many years as an outdoor cat, before a Last Hope volunteer found him and brought him in to rescue.  Jerry is around 11 years old and he absolutely adores the company of humans! He will make a terrific companion for a cat savvy adult who understands cats that enjoy their space yet seek out affection on their own terms. Jerry spent some time living in our office as the office assistant! He was an excellent watch cat and kept everyone on track but had since retired and is living life watching (or napping) everyone work from atop the kennels! Jerry will love a home with lots of windows to enjoy and a cat tower or even a cozy cardboard box that he can hunker down in and nap the day away in.  Jerry loves to get out and explore at our adoption center! Jerry also loves a great scratching post, we find that he enjoys cardboard kitty scratchers the most. Jerry's many years spent as an outdoor kitty have left him FIV positive, this simply means that he has the potential to have a more sensitive immune system so will require a diligent owner who will promptly attend to his medical concerns should they arise.  Jerry would do best in a home without young children or other animals.  He’s got more than enough love to offer to anyone willing to take a chance on him!  Jerry's adoption fee is $85 and includes his neuter, microchip and current vaccinations.  Jerry is seeking an indoor only home, if you would like to meet him please submit an adoption application for consideration through our website Adopthope.org.  Last Hope requires that adopters have a history of having kept their animals altered, current on vaccinations and preventatives and as indoor pets only.  Our adoption process includes a vet history check and a home visit.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.May 6, 2024, 12:08 am
