Ear Feathers

Ear Feathers is a very unique and beautiful long-haired young lady who lived her entire lift outdoors until we took her into our care in September of 2024. She is believed to be only a few years old. Upon intake, Ear Feathers was quite sick and struggled with some pretty severe diarrhea. She was hospitalized for several weeks undergoing a variety of tests including, bloodwork, fecal, and thyroid testing. None of her bloodwork showed any serious health conditions and she was negative for thyroid issues and fecal issues. She has improved 1,000% since we've first taken her in and her stool issues have seemed to since resolve although she does benefit from eating Iams original chicken recipe cat food. Ear Feathers has had an extensive dental surgery in which all but just a few of her teeth were removed. (This doesn't slow her eating down at all or cause her any problems, by the way!) She has DOUBLED in weight since we first took her in and is now a healthy weight. Ear Feathers is sure to attract lots of attention due to her beauty and quirky "ear feathers" but she really needs to go to a specific type of home that will be willing and able to care for her appropriately. It would be important to keep in mind that Ear Feathers had a rough past with her health and, although she is doing great now, it would be important to note that it is possible that she might need some more vet follow-up care--possibly more than your average cat. Additionally, Ear Feathers needs a CALM home with someone who is willing to invest time and patience into continuing to socialize her. An adopter who has experience with skittish cats would be ideal but not necessarily required. We are not recommending a home with young children due to a calm home being in Ear Feathers' best interest. Ear Feathers is EXCELLENT with other cats and kittens so a home that has another feline companion, preferably a confident or outgoing one, would be ideal for her and may help her feel at home! Ear Feathers came from a location where she had previously been exposed to a large, cat-friendly dog so dogs should not be totally foreign to her and should be fine as long as they give her space and aren't too hyper. We want Ear Feathers to go to a home that is willing to keep her regardless of how outgoing she may ever become. She IS a friendly girl but does need time to settle in and get used to her new life indoors. She enjoys having a closed-in area where she can decompress and get back scratches, which she LOVES!!! Ear Feathers has been spayed, is up to date on vaccines, dewormed, flea treated, FIV/FeLV/HW tested negative, and microchipped! She is ready for adoption now!!!
