Candy - Maine Coon Cat for Adoption in Herndon, Virginia

Meet Candy – A Survivor with a Heart Full of Love
Beautiful Candy is a stunning 4-year-old Maine Coon mix who has already overcome more than most cats ever should. Originally from Kuwait, Candy was rescued from the streets after she was found struggling desperately to breathe. Her rescuers feared she might not survive.
Candy was rushed to the veterinarian, where she spent an extended time in an oxygen cage. The vets discovered a large amount of fluid in her chest and, after testing, diagnosed her with chylothorax, a rare and challenging condition.
Candy underwent surgery and, thankfully, made an incredible recovery! Today, she is doing well and is ready to leave her temporary home behind and find the loving family she's been waiting for.
Because of her medical history, Candy does need a special low-fat diet, such as Royal Canin Gastrointestinal Low Fat or another veterinarian-approved equivalent. Her family will need to continue this diet to help support her health—but Candy is worth every bit of extra care.
And despite everything she's endured, Candy hasn't lost her sweetness. She is loving, gentle, and very friendly with other cats. One of her favorite things is making biscuits on her soft blanket, a precious little reminder of just how happy and secure she feels when she's comfortable.
Candy is spayed and microchipped and ready for a forever home. She has already fought incredibly hard for her second chance. Now she needs someone who will give her what she has been missing all along: a safe home, loving family, good care, and a soft place to make biscuits.
Candy survived the streets, a frightening medical crisis, and major surgery. Now she deserves the happily-ever-after she fought so hard to reach. Could you be her forever family?
Adoption fee $200, includes: first 2 FVRCP vaccines, deworming, flea preventatives, sterilized, microchip
