KIWI
Sphynx Hairless Cat, Munchkin
🇺🇸
Kenosha, Wisconsin
May 29th
female, small, adult
DESCRIPTION
KIWI is a darling BLUE AND WHITE DWELF. She is around 4 years old, spayed, has her claws and weighs a petite 5 pounds.
A Dwelf is a mix of Sphynx (hairless), Munchkin (short legs) and American Curl (ears). Kiwi came out of a pretty terrible situation where she was being bred constantly and has fortunately been in SPCR care for a while recovering and being stabilized. She is an incredibly affectionate, LOVING and SMART cat, delighting her caregiver daily with her antics. She is very active and can do most things the big cats can do and follows her foster mom around like a small puppy.
Kiwi is most certainly a special needs cat and we are looking for a VERY SPECIFIC type of home for her. Please read the following requirements below before applying:
1. Because of the abuse she has been through, Kiwi does NOT like other cats. She is very people oriented and would probably be ok with a gentle dog.
2. Kiwi has an autoimmune skin condition that requires she be on a prescription diet as well as two different types of inexpensive medications to keep her stable. This is a condition that will have to be monitored her whole life. Regular vet care will be mandatory.
3. We will prefer Sphynx/Rex experienced people only, with rare exceptions.
This poor little girl has been through so much that she deserves the best possible home. We know you are out there, she just has to find you!
Special Needs Adoption fee $150. FOSTERED IN KENOSHA, WI.
