Meet the magnificent Edith! 🌟 This stunning long-haired calico is around five years old, and her journey has been nothing short of a heartfelt saga. Rescued from a challenging life on the streets of Detroit, Edith was living in a cat colony, bravely facing the wild with her adult daughter, Esther. When a kind-hearted volunteer discovered that both were friendly—and interestingly enough, expecting kittens—their lives took a turn for the better as they were brought into the warmth of foster care. When Edith first arrived, she was understandably weary and unsure about this whole ‘indoor life.’ Imagine being a street-savvy survivor and suddenly thrust into a cozy environment — it can be a bit overwhelming! She came in battling an upper respiratory infection, her fur a tangled mess, and burdened by grime from her outdoor adventures. But even through her struggles, this sweet soul remained patient and tolerant, allowing her foster mom to clean her up, administer medicine, and work through those pesky matts in her fur, even though trust didn’t come easily. But oh, what a transformation! 🌈 With time and tender love, Edith began to flourish. She learned that gentle hands could be a source of kindness and that love could indeed be safe. After twelve weeks of nurturing, she finally opened up, purring and seeking affection all on her own! Can you imagine the tears of joy her foster mom shed that day? Tears of hope and happiness! Not only has Edith shown incredible love by raising her kittens, but she’s also been a nurturing figure to her grown daughter, Esther. These two share an unbreakable bond, where Edith can often be seen looking out for her daughter. Now, she's ready for her next chapter — a serene, patient home where she can truly continue her blossoming journey. Once she trusts you, Edith becomes the epitome of calmness and affection. ❤️ She’s a living testament that even the most guarded hearts can heal with time, care, and oodles of kindness. Edith is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on her vaccinations. If you’re ready to share your life with this loving companion, directly apply to adopt her through the Buddy App!
