Meet our Foster Feature, Cookie!🐾
Cookie is an 8-year-old beauty accepting applications for her furever home. She came to PAWs after her original owner suggested euthanasia due to her weight, grooming issues, and reportedly cranky personality. After a complete check up the vet determined her problems were completely treatable. She arrived at her foster home weighing nearly 20lbs. She was given space to decompress and has lost 5 pounds! She is much happier now that she can get around so much easier. Although she could still lose another pound or two (let's face it, can't we all?), she is able to run around and play now, and she can groom herself again.
Cookie has a unique and beautiful dilute tortie coat and the cutest meow. She was living with a mellow dog and two cats and is now around multiple cats. She likes to be near people, enjoys being petted and brushed, and will sit right next to you or even crawl onto your lap. She is content sleeping in her bed or a sun ray. She would do best with an experienced cat owner and could be an only cat or join others with a proper introduction and a safe place to enjoy her meals. Cookie is not suited for a home with small children as she prefers a calm environment.
She requires a committed owner to help with her weight management. She is currently on prescription weight management food, but with continued weight loss, can switch off of prescription food soon. She has no issues using the litter box.
Cookie seeks someone who will understand, respect, adore and love her while giving her the space she needs. She knows she is fabulous! Are you the person who knows it too and will give her a second chance? Please reach out to Paws Across Pittsburgh! 🧡
