Meet Maple!
Maple came into our care from a vets as she was found straying.
Unfortunately, when Maple came to us she was in a rough shape, no teeth to be found, skinny and her hair in rough shape.
She didn’t let this deter her and has always continued to be a quirky little girl with a very big personality!
When Maple first came into us, she did have a bit of a spicy attitude.
We thought this could have just been a case of the infamous tortie-tude, but staff knew something wasn’t quite right and after investigation, it was found that she has spondylosis- an incurable stiffening off the spine.
She was then put on pain relief and you could immediately tell that Maple was no longer in pain! This allowed her to show her true self, which is super affectionate! She will be on long term medication and will need this continued into her new home, but staff can talk to you about this.
Maple’s favourite part of the day is when she sees a staff member or volunteer coming to spend time with her and she will immediately make herself comfy on their knee.
If it was up to her, she would spend all her time cuddled up on someone’s lap! She loves people so much that when staff come in to do the cleaning, she jumps onto their back to make sure she is as close to them as possible! Should you just be passing and not saying hello she does perform a little dance instead!
Maple would need to be the only animal in the house as she can be sore on her back and won’t appreciate any furry friends trying to play with her, but also because she wants all the attention to herself! As she does still have a bit of her tortie-tude, she would be best being home to an adult only home, or a family with older children who have been around cats before.
She would also need to have outdoor access.
Maple is a quirky girl with a one-of-a-kind personality who has become a favourite among staff and volunteers.
She has been in our care for over a year now and we are all wanting her to find her furr-ever home so if you think it could be you- please fill out an application!.
Questions.. Questions.. We know there’s a fair few. But, the more information we can gather from you now, the quicker we can match you to this pet or another one. A few minutes of your time now will also allow us to spend more time with the animals when you come to the sanctuary.
Your generous contributions make a huge difference to the animals we care for and also helps us to continue our work & success.
