Companion Cats for Seniors Program
"TENIELLE" GOES HOME
WITH HER NEW PET PARENTS
The companionship and devotion of a pet is something that brings joy to life. HEART’s
COMPANION CATS FOR SENIORS PROGRAM
can help you get that feeling again.
This program is designed to give our older cats (5+ years) the opportunity to be placed in a loving home by matching them with qualified senior citizens who are 65 years of age or older.
An older cat would be a great choice for an older person that needs a buddy. Older cats don't ask for much -– just a warm place to sleep, good meals, and plenty of love!
To an older animal, a senior citizen that dotes on them and spends a significant amount of time allowing them to sit on their lap or lay at their feet is an inviting and ideal home.
IS THERE A COST?
There is no adoption fee if you qualify for this program but you must be pre-approved for adoption, just as any other applicant.
HOW DOES THE COMPANION CATS FOR SENIORS PROGRAM WORK?
Once approved for the program, HEART will select a companion that is a good match for you from the cats available through this program.
A cat may live 15-20 Years. That's a very long time. Before you take your new pet home you sign an Adoption Contract agreeing to be a responsible pet parent by providing food, fresh water, clean litter, and companionship. A co-signer is required.
ARE YOU A SENIOR CITIZEN WHO WOULD LIKE TO EXPERIENCE THE WARM CUDDLE OF A CAT SITTING ON YOUR LAP?
Please contact us for more information.

"VENUS" (SG-1007)
Venus is a pretty calico kitty that was homeless when she was brought to HEART. She get along with other pets..but when it really comes down to it, she would prefer to have her owner all to herself. This girl appreciates her quiet time and never misses a meal. She would do great in a senior home.
Are you a senior citizen that needs a buddy? Please
CONTACT US
to arrange a "meet and greet" with Venus.
"BERT" (SG-1002)
Bert's story has been in some of the local papers. He was brought into an Emergency Vet Hosp on 1/4/2012 with frostbite (body temp 85), dehydrated, starving, flea ridden, had a wound on his paw pad and a broken canine tooth.
