We're happy to tell you that Scooter (278) has a new furever home. Please visit our Available cats Page to see the pups currently available.
SCOOTER is a female-spayed short hair tortoiseshell/tabby mix feline, with limited Special Needs. Mid-August 2019 she was born with significantly deformed (not paralyzed) rear legs. (She is only modestly impaired because she can’t walk normally, run, or jump up. Otherwise, she’s normal: able to get around without assistance to people, to her food & water bowls, uses her litter box without assistance, can jump down onto her front legs, and can climb up some cat trees.) She was rescued as a kitten by a gentleman who lovingly cared for her the next 5 years. Early June 2024 her owner became unable to continue caring for her, so sadly relinquished her to YAPS. Scooter is pretty, very gentle, and VERY affectionate - seems to prefer males. Although she’s stressed from the loss of her prior home, & move to new surroundings, she may come to you for affection from her resting place, and roll over for stomach rubs. She LOVES being petted, or held in your lap/arms as long as you wish – usually nuzzles you &/or “kneads biscuits” in appreciation. She should never be outside unless accompanied by her owner, or in an enclosed space, safe from predators.
