Here is the sweet girl with her battle wound. They gave her a long-lasting antibiotic shot so I didn’t have to stress her out with giving her meds every 12 hours. They also did a long-term pain shot so she could just be left alone to decompress.
This is the last weekend for adoptions and I am hoping that Shimmer has found a new home. I will take her over there tomorrow to meet Janna a 71 year old who just moved here from my old stomping ground- Orange County California. She said she is lonely and she wants a lap kitty- an inside only kitty and I told her all about Shimmer’s shyness and it didn’t seem to deter her. Shimmer will growl and hiss at you, but once you actually start petting her- she is all over the moon happy to be touched and loved on. Human touch is just such an alien feeling for her it takes a lot of patience to wait her out and let her learn to trust someone. But to find her just the right home- that would be the best Christmas gift I could ask for! I have her online as a special needs kitty and it sounds like Janna needs her as much as she needs Janna.
Shimmer is such a beauty, I am sure that once they get used to each other she will be a very much loved only cat. so glad that miss Hannah is now cancer free. such good news to hear.
I think Shimmer may become very attached to the person who gives her attention and love. She’ll feel that at last she has a family. And as for Hannah, this is a new start for her; she was lucky to have come to you – as they all are.
What a good news for Hannah! So happy for her! And Shimmer is so cute. I’m sure she will be fine. All she needs is love;)
