BIO:
Meet Patches and Posie! They joined us in January after being at a local animal control since September. 2022 They had a euthanasia date scheduled and we were asked if we could take them. We were able to say yes!
Patches and Posie’s person went to hospital and passed away there. The family brought the girls in and didn’t know their names. So we gifted them some names as sweet as they are.
Patches is 12 years old, and obese. She has difficulty walking more than a couple steps and she can’t groom herself. She is on a slow and safe weight loss plan. Other than that her blood work shows she is in good health.
Posie is 16 years old. She has arthritis that was impacting her mobility. The shelter gave her a Solensia injection after we mentioned how helpful it can be and it’s been a big help for both girls! She’ll definitely need to stay on Solensia moving forward. Posie needs a dental and she’s on the waitlist for that (likely in March 2023). Otherwise she is in good health according to her blood work.
These sweet girls have spent their lives together and will need to be adopted together. Patches is a purr monster and adores having a snooze in your lap. She also likes playing with wand toys. Posie likes to follow you around and has a cute little meow.
They currently tolerate the cats and well behaved dog in their foster home. We feel they could be in a home with other animals as long as those pets are calm and not pushy.
Chichi
STATUS: Available!
Approximate Date of Birth: 2008
BREED: DSH
COLOUR: White
GENDER: Spayed Female
MEDICAL: Deaf, osteoarthritis, heart condition (last 2 treated with meds)
Petfinder Profile: https://www.petfinder.com/cat/chichi-55253659/on/brantford/second-hope-circle-on606/
BIO: Chichi is a sweetie pie with pretty white fur and light blue eyes. Her eyes have been hard to see because she came to us with horribly infected sore eyes. We treated her eyes with medication for several months without resolution and the vet determined she has entropian! This is a condition where there are hairs touching the eyes. She had her first surgery in February and after recovery it was determined she needed a second surgery. She has recovered from both surgeries and is doing great! She came with Mikey but they are not bonded and Chichi would prefer not to be adopted with him.
Chichi adores catnip, cozy cave like nap spots and cheek rubs. She is a little less confident than Mikey and will need time to settle in. Chichi has osteoarthritis and walks in an unusual way because of this. She’s now on pain meds and this helps. Chichi had very bad teeth, but after a dental surgery she is feeling so much better! Chichi is deaf. Chichi does have a heart condition that was discovered and is now on once daily medication to support her.
Chichi loves heated cat beds! She will not come to you, but if you go to her she practically falls over trying to get cheek rubs and heads pats. She can be picked up but prefers not to be and since her back end can be sore from osteoarthritis so we don’t pet her there. She enjoys interactive play time with wand toys. We think in a home without other pets Chichi will flourish!
Midnight
STATUS: Pending Adoption!
Approximate Date of Birth: 2007
BREED: DSH
COLOUR: Black with white chest mark
GENDER: Spayed Female
MEDICAL: Deaf, arthritis, hyperthyroid
Petfinder Profile: https://www.petfinder.com/cat/midnight-56077575/on/brantford/second-hope-circle-on606/
BIO: Midnight is approx 15 years old and so soft!
Midnight and Toby arrived after their person died and they went to a couple other homes who couldn’t keep them. They are comfortable around each other but not bonded, we feel they’d be totally fine being adopted separately.
Midnight is approx 15 years old and has hyperthyroidism. This is treated by a pill twice a day which is easy to give. She also has arthritis, again treated by a simple oral medication. She is very easy to medicate. Midnight is very affectionate and confident and even likes belly rubs and being brushed.
Midnight is super soft. She has a playful side, loves food and will tell you all about it, and enjoys snoozing on a screened in porch. She mostly ignores other cats so she’s be okay with a calm laid back kitty or two. She would be okay with a dog who doesn’t chase or bug her.
She has met a 7 year old child who petted her and picked her up. Midnight is fine with respectful children and doesn’t run or hide, but enjoys the love!
Midnight has a dental coming up in September and is available for adoption in the meantime. The dental cost is covered by us.
