Hi! My name is Ginger! I was surrendered when my previous person had to move to a long-term care facility. I never thought I would ever lose my person or my home, especially at my age, but sadly I did. At first I was skeptical I would be able to adapt to a new home and new humans but after some time in my foster home I realized I was wrong!

I’m a beautiful, calm and affectionate orange Tabby girl. Yep, I’m an uncommon female orange Tabby. Humans often assume all orange Tabbies are males but there’s a small percentage of us females mixed in and we're special.

I’m initially shy in new environments and around new humans but it’s understandable after not having to face change for so many years. I was content and comfortable in my previous home with my person for so long and honestly, I can’t remember the last time I dealt with any major life changes. Change can be scary and overwhelming but a quiet and calm environment really helps me while I’m adjusting to so much newness. It took me a while to warm up in my foster home but my foster human was so patient and loving while she observed me and took baby steps towards gaining my trust.

She quickly learned that I’m very food motivated so she used yummy Hills i/d food to help me feel more comfortable out in the open and to help build my confidence. Once I settled in and felt more relaxed, I revealed my ultra affectionate purrsonality. I love nothing more than sitting next to my human and receiving pets and every now and then I even like to play with a fun string toy. I adore humans once I get to know them and will let you know how happy I am to see you with my tiny squeaks!

I’m looking for a calm home with a family who will be patient with me while I adapt to my new surroundings and get to know you. Oh and who will also continue to feed me the Hills prescription food I love (hence the special needs label). Now I know change isn’t bad like I imagined it would be and I can’t wait to meet my forever family!
