Tessie - Domestic Long Hair Cat Available for Adoption in Scituate, Massachusetts

Tessie is a beautiful senior lady looking for a nice retirement home to call her own. She is 15 years old, and very sweet. However, she was brought to us after her own passed away and she began attacking the cat in the home that took her in. For this reason, we think Tessie would prefer to be an only pet.

Things to know about Tessie:
1) She is in kidney failure and has high blood pressure, both of which require medications.
2) She is deaf, but that doesn't seem to bother her much. She does have a loud meow!
3) She is an amazing, beautiful, sweet lady that deserves a warm windowsill to live out the rest of her life!

Are you looking for a companion who will adore you? Tessie is it!
