Lily

My story

From Frightened Mama to Cherished Companion: Adopt Sweet Lily! 🏡 😺 This is Lily (dob 4/23/23), a resilient and beautiful dilute tortie mama who deserves the safest, most loving forever home imaginable. Her start in life was heartbreaking: Lily and her tiny kittens were found in abandoned in back yard, tragically taped inside boxes—she in a cardboard box, her babies in a shoe box. She has shown incredible strength and love to survive that ordeal and raise her kittens, who have all since been adopted. 😻 A Quiet Heart Seeking Gentle Love Lily is an absolute gem, but she keeps getting overlooked for one simple reason: she is shy. She won't be the cat to rush the door to greet you. She needs a calm environment and a little time to decompress and trust. BUT, if you offer her a few gentle, slow pets, her true personality shines through! She melts into an adorable love bug who purrs non-stop. She is incredibly lovable, smart, funny, and has a wonderful disposition once she feels safe. 💖 Lily's Amazing Qualities She is shy initially but transforms into an affectionate love bug. She is great with other cats and people, playful, joyful, smart, funny, resilient, affectionate and just a sweetheart. 🤏 Small Hurdle She Overcame: Haws Syndrome Shortly after her rescue, Lily developed a condition called Haws syndrome. What is Haws Syndrome? This is a non-painful condition in cats where the third eyelids (the protective inner membranes) become slightly visible or stick out over the eyes. It's often associated with intestinal distress, parasites, or stress. The good news? Lily received excellent care, and she is totally fine and healthy now! Her eyes are clear, and she's ready for a fresh start. 📣 We Need Your Patience, You Get Her Heart Lily has been through so much. She needs a patient family who understands that the very best relationships often take time to build. Give Lily a quiet corner, a few days of peace, and a gentle hand, and she will reward you with a lifetime of purrs and devotion. 🙏 Please don't let her quiet nature stop you from meeting your soulmate. Choose the cat who needs a little time to bloom, and watch her beautiful personality unfold. Sweet Lily is spayed, UTD on vaccines, snap tested negative, de-wormed and has had flea and tick preventative. ➡️ Ready to give Lily the patient, loving home she deserves?
