Marigold

My story

Hello beautiful people! My name is Marigold and I am quite pleased to make your acquaintance. My foster mom tells me that even though I'm only 8 months old, I am an old soul, a soft, gentle soul. I am laid back, sweet and oh-so loving. I play with toys on occasion, but really I'm all about being petted and relaxing. I am a professional lounger. I have a gorgeous and unique coat color - I'm half calico, half tabby. You could call me a Tabbico! My foster mom also tells me that I have something called feline leukemia, but I honestly don't know what that means. I feel healthy and active. Feline leukemia means that I have a compromised immune system and the virus is contagious to other cats. But it's not contagiour to people or to dogs and other animals. Feline leukemia (FeLV+) means I need a home that will provide high-quality care. That's all. I won't have the longest lifespan out there, but I really want to make the most of every moment I have. I want someone to love and to love me back. I currently have no ongoing medical treatment or medication. I hope to find my forever home right away so I can experience all the things normal cats can do in their homes, like unconditional love and safety, and be able to cuddle with my parents. I love other cats, but because I'm FeLV+ I can only live with other FeLV+ cats, or by myself, or in a home with dogs or other animals. Feline Leukemia is cat specific. Don't let my diagnosis scare you though, I can still have a happy and healthy life in a home with you. Bring me home so we can make every moment we have together count, and I can spend my time loving you as much as you'll love me. Apply today and you'll be so glad you did! Adoption fee: $75.

So, for most of our adoptable cats, we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each cat or kitten as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our cats based on personality, not by breed label. Adoption Process: Complete the application at www.pawsforliferescue.org. We then arrange a location, date and time for you to meet some pets. If the meeting goes well and everyone is happy, you begin the mandatory, minimum two-week adjustment period with the pet as part of your family. You will pay the non-refundable adoption fee at the start of the two-week adjustment period. This pending period allows your new dog or cat time to adjust to their new home, new people, new routine, etc., and for you to decide if it's a match and the right pet for you. At the end of two weeks (some people extend the adjustment time as needed and that's fine too), if everyone is happy, then we finalize the adoption. Feel free to email if you have any questions.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Marigold, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
