Lily is a petite, small domestic medium hair cat with a gray and white coat. She is spayed, house trained, and up to date on her vaccinations. Lily lives with a seizure condition and will need daily medication in her New Windsor, NY home. She is young, gets along with other cats, and prefers a calm, patient environment.

About Lily

Little Lily needs a patient adopter who can look past her medical history. She suffers from seizures and relies on daily medication, which works very well for her, but that extra care makes it harder to find her the loving home she deserves. Despite being fully grown, Lily is so petite she looks like she’ll be a forever kitten. Lily’s past means she moves nervously and takes a while to trust new people. She prefers to rest somewhere quiet and out of sight until she feels comfortable. Once she’s settled in, she can be won over with squeezy treats—she adores them, and they make giving her pills much less of a chore. She’s smart enough to eat around her medication, though, unless you get clever, too. Lily gets along with other cats but takes time to warm up to her people. Right now, she’s in New Windsor, NY, waiting and hoping for a gentle home. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
