*Tank

Description

Tank is a a sweet, gentle girl who has had a long, happy life and would love to find a new favorite human to spend her final years with. At seventeen years old, she is no longer able to jump into your lap on her own, but she will happily curl up in it if you help her get there. She loves Netflix nights! She is very docile and loves being held; with no do-not-touch zones, she loves to be petted and brushed anywhere. She'll happily lie on her back while her rear claws are trimmed (she's been front declawed, so there are only two feet to trim). She can be shy at first but has become bolder with age (she does spook easily at loud noises). She's lived with a dog and with another cat but generally keeps to herself or her humans; she's also lived with kids and does great with them if they're not rough with her.  Because she is well into her golden years, Tank's body has developed some extra needs; she has long been diagnosed with hyperthyroidism, which is managed by twice-daily pills and prescription food, and more recently we've found a heart murmur, and her kidney levels have been high; our vet suspects the kidney abnormalities may be the result of not getting consistent meds due to her previous owner's financial struggles, but her kidneys will need ongoing monitoring.  Tank's adoption fee is $75.
