Heartbreaking Story of 17-Year-Old Cat Daisy Touches Community, Sparks Adoption Hope
Tinley Park, IL – Daisy, a 17-and-a-half-year-old declawed tabby cat, is currently awaiting adoption at P.A.W.S. of Tinley Park, a no-kill animal shelter. Daisy's story has garnered attention as she navigates life in a shelter after being with her previous family for 14 years. According to the shelter, Daisy was surrendered when her family relocated and could no longer care for her. Described as calm, sweet, and loving, Daisy faces the unique challenges of a senior pet in a shelter environment. She has been diagnosed with kidney disease, necessitating a prescription diet to manage her health. The shelter highlights the upcoming "kitten season," a period that often sees an influx of young cats, potentially overshadowing older animals seeking homes. A representative from P.A.W.S. of Tinley Park stated, "Daisy is a wonderful cat who deserves a peaceful and loving home for her golden years. Despite her age and health needs, she has so much affection to give." The shelter is actively seeking a compassionate individual or family willing to provide Daisy with the specialized care and companionship she needs. Her story serves as a poignant reminder of the many senior pets in shelters hoping for a second chance at a forever home.
