Clove is estimated to be about a year old as of July, 2026. Clove is a beautiful girl who had a rough life prior to her rescue. While lots of love, medicines and treatments, she has become healthy yet the lack of food and nutrition took a toll of her gi system requiring her to eat only an easily digestible food; a prescription diet. With that diet, she lives a normal life and is released from treatment! Don't let her "special needs" scare you away. She is much more special than needy! Her diet costs .89 cents a serving and she has two servings a day making her expenses less than $2.00 a day; less expensive that store bought food and much healthier!

Clove is super sweet and playful. She will need some time in segregation to adjust to her new home and family, yet it won't take long to earn her trust. She loves to be petted and is learning to love a lap too!! She has lived with other cats and dogs and will do fine with proper introduction. She will be a great fit into any home that can provide her what she needs and love her FOREVER! Adopt Clove today!
