Story
Age: 10 Years Good with dogs? Unknown Good with cats? Unknown Good with kids? Older Energy Level: Moderate Adoption Fee: $75 Any other info: Meet Missy: A Gentle Soul in Need of Love Missy is a stunning 10 year old gray tabby whose world was turned upside down when her beloved mom passed away. She was deeply cherished, sleeping by her side in bed every night, and now finds herself grieving and confused in the shelter. This sweet senior girl is shy and timid at first, but once she feels safe, her true heart shines through. Missy adores gentle pets, curling up on a warm lap, and being close to the people she trusts. She has so much love to give, but shelter life has left her shut down, depressed, and struggling. Her family shared that Missy has always done best with women, and since she was the only pet, we’re unsure how she’d do with other animals. What we do know is that Missy longs for a quiet, loving home where she can heal and feel safe again on someone’s lap. Missy is not just a cat, she’s a grieving companion who deserves comfort, patience, and a second chance at love. She’s waiting for someone to open their heart and home to her, so she can once again be the cherished lap cat she was meant to be. Missy is spayed, up to date on age appropriate vaccines, microchipped, and triple tested negative for FIV, FelV, and heartworm disease. All she needs now is YOU! Please consider giving Missy the gift of a home. She’s ready to love you deeply, if only given the chance.
