THE JOY OF OLDER CATS
Everyone loves kittens. Who can blame them? Kittens are just so much fun!! But they get into so much mischief and their personalities are still mysteries. Will they be snuggle bugs or standoffish? Will they be door dashers or will they be happy in a sunny window with a view? An older cat, with experience under their belt, will let you know their opinion on every subject from lap sitting preferences to feeding time.
Marley, a 15 year old sweetheart, came to us when her owner went into the hospital. Potential adopters couldn’t see past her age and missed that she was loving, active, and playful. Yes, playful.
Cats will play all of their lives because to them it is hunting and that is the most natural thing possible. They might need to be reminded of their skills in this department but it is well worth the effort to see a former couch potato leap for a toy on a string.
It’s true that older cats can come with health baggage but that, too, is part of life. What a wonderful gift it would be for a person to give a senior cat—security, loving care, a gentle touch, and a warm lap for however long their forever is. And it is a two way street. Cats give us so very much. They comfort us, lower our blood pressure, make us laugh, and give us a reason to get up in the morning. All of that in a small furry body.
Please give an older cat a chance to enhance your life. The rewards are immeasurable.
