GiGi

I had a cat for 17 years whose passing devastated me. She was my best friend. When I was ready to adopt again, I went to the MSPCA looking specifically for an adult cat. When I came across a 12 year old cat named Money whose purr I could hear from multiple feet away, I couldn't help but open up her cage and pet her which amplified her purrs. I saw she was in the shelter for over a month and was listed to have a hyperthyroid, which means she has to be on medication for the rest of her life. My previous cat had a hyperthyroid for many years and I knew that cats actually love the taste of the medication (they think it's a treat!) so treating Money's hyperthyroid would be a piece of cake. I couldn't help but adopt her. Money's name has since been changed to Gigi. Her thyroid is under control and she took to her new surroundings in my home beautifully. She has a wonderful personality! Mellow and playful at the same time. She is sweet and loving. The best thing I have since found out about her since we adopted her is that she is actually a lap cat! She cuddles on my lap every night while we watch tv together. It gives me something to look forward to every day when I come home. She has quickly turned in to my best friend and I am grateful for the MSPCA bringing us together.
