About Ac

Start your journey together! Apply now. Ac is a very sweet senior girl who longs for a lap to call her own and plenty of affection. After being adopted as a kitten in 2011, she was recently found as a stray, underweight and with fleas. Thankfully, she is now back to a healthy weight, free of fleas, and has had a thorough dental cleaning with some teeth removed. Her recent blood work is promising for a senior cat. Ac enjoys the company of other cats as long as they are respectful and allow her peaceful lap time, but she would also be content as an only kitty. At 14 years old, she still has lots of love to offer and would make a wonderful, mellow lap companion. Long-term foster homes may be considered for this gentle lady. Adoption events take place at the Fair Oaks Petco (Madison at Hazel) every Saturday from noon to 4pm. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
