About Callie
Although I don't look my age, I am 13-years-old and weigh 16.1 pounds. You can see I am a beautiful Calico lady. I have a lot to recommend me to a new forever owner. I got along great with the children I grew up with. I don't mind if you want to pick me up and hold me; if I want down, I will get squirmy. I am very affectionate and love to lay on or next to my people as much as possible. I can become skittish when I meet a stranger and keep my distance until they sit down. Once I see they mean no harm, I will investigate them and ask for some attention! I'm not a real fan of playtime with toys. However, I will get excited once in a blue moon and romp with catnip-stuffed toys. But at thirteen, my idea of a good time is a nap in the sunshine. I was so happy to see the interviewer lady (IL) open my door I went right up to her giving her head butts and licking her arm. I let her pet me all over and give me some ear scratches. Affection always makes me hungry, so I began to eat my breakfast. I was spayed long ago when I lived with my first owner. Nearly five years ago, I was given to my latest owner. Due to landlord issues, I was surrendered to HSHC on May 12. Soon, I developed an upper respiratory infection, for which I was treated, and I have recovered. You probably also noted that I am a chunky monkey! When you are a senior citizen and overweight, arthritis tends to make exercise painful. The HSHC's medical examination revealed some conditions that require medication. I have high blood pressure, obesity, blood clots in my kidneys, and dental disease. Medications and diet help control these conditions. I will need a gradual introduction to your home and any household members. The HSHC staff will provide all the information you need to help me transition to your house! 6-11-25

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.
