About Juliet (in Foster)
How do you do? I am a lovely 14-years-old Calico cat. In my opinion, way too old to be surrendered to HSHC on January 17. I have lived with one family for all 14 years, 7 years with one branch and 7 years with another. When I was 1-year-old, all four of my paws were declawed! Ouchy McOucherson! This is probably why I now have arthritis pain in my hips and lower back. The medical staff gave me medicine to relieve the pain and told me I needed to lose weight. Almost 14 pounds puts too much pressure on my feet, back, and hips. I've always used the litterbox faithfully until about a month ago. Most likely, my owner did not know that having a litterbox with a top opening or high sides is just too difficult for me to climb into or out of. A low-sided litterbox with soft, fine-grained litter will be much easier and less painful. In September, we moved to a new apartment. The neighbors are extremely noisy during the day! I prefer a calm, quiet, peaceful environment. My owner reported that I am a very affectionate girl; I like to play and be held. When the interviewer lady stopped by, I was dozing in my Kasa, so when I woke up, I gave her a reluctant smile. I let her pet my head and enjoyed playing with the toy she was flipping around my paws. I am naturally somewhat reserved with strangers. But once I get to know you, I'm a love-bug. 2-10-25

Not Quite Ready To Adopt?
You can make an immeasurable impact by opening your home and your heart to an animal in need. Fostering is a great opportunity to introduce a pet into your home without making a lifelong commitment. Many of our foster humans end up adopting their fostered animals, but many also choose to just provide the temporary shelter and love our animals need to get through a trying time.
