Contessa Kit Kat

My story

  Looking for a royal *lap cat*? Meet Contessa Kit Kat! Contessa Kit Kat is a 15 year old majestic purr machine calico who wants nothing more than to sit in your lap and snuggle with you! When this sweet kitty came to PAWS she was dangerously skinny and shut down, but thanks to PAWS, she is feeling much brighter and better! Kit Kat enjoys watching over her kingdom through the window and occasionally chasing a toy mouse or two.  She’ll even deign to greet you with the sweetest meow! The Contessa takes a pill in her food twice a day for her hyperthyroidism and currently eats a prescription food (Hills K/D) designed to help her stage 2 chronic kidney disease. Hyperthyroidism and chronic kidney disease are common senior cat ailments that can be managed well through consistent care. Kit Kat seems to be hard of hearing and this can result in her being accidentally surprised/scared by other pets or young children. Because of this, we believe she would do best in a home with adults or older children. Kit Kat has adjusted to the quiet dog and cat in her foster home, and would do well in a home with respectful other pets or as the only pet. Kit Kat always uses the litterbox and is a big fan of meal time! Age: 15 How I came to PAWS: Owner moved to senior care facility Animal ID#: 179250 &#226&#128&#139I am not at the shelter. Please email my foster parent at emkatharnold@gmail.com to learn more about me! _____________________________________ To adopt a cat, complete the application at phillypaws.org/catapp. To adopt a dog, complete the application at phillypaws.org/dogapp.  To adopt a small animal, complete the application at phillypaws.org/small-animal-adoption-application.           Please reference this animal's ID NUMBER when inquiring.
