Izzy is an 11-year-old long-haired kitty who ended up at the rescue after her previous family could no longer manage her litter box issues. She was understandably withdrawn at first, but a dedicated foster gave her a peaceful space to recover. After a clear vet checkup and some detective work, it turned out Izzy’s declawed paws were likely sore from arthritis and made digging in regular litter painful. Switching her to a super-soft litter brought immediate results—she now uses the box reliably and even enjoys a treat afterward. Izzy is naturally a shy cat and thrives in a calm, quiet home. She’s best suited as a solo companion for someone home much of the day who can offer gentle care. Izzy doesn’t get along with other cats or dogs, so she needs to be the only pet. She may have had accidents before, but with the right support she’s ready for a fresh start—and a little extra TLC. Izzy just needs someone who appreciates a sweet, declawed cat who wants to leave her rocky past behind. Lets make it official, apply to adopt!
