About Boots

Boots, a 14-year-old Domestic Short Hair in Ramona, CA, lost her home due to her owner's housing changes. This senior cat is gentle, affectionate, and sports a motorboat purr. She thrives in peaceful spaces, never far from her person, and soaks up sunny patches when she can. Boots welcomes gentle affection—especially head scratches—and brings calm energy wherever she goes. She’s previously shared her home with another cat and a small dog, making her adaptable to many family structures. Boots manages diabetes well, needing just 2 units of insulin daily, and her insulin and supplies are covered by Frosted Faces Foundation. She’s been living with the rescue founders while they fine-tune her medical routine. Litter box habits are excellent, and she sleeps quietly at the foot of the bed. FIV-positive but able to live with other friendly cats, Boots won’t let her diagnosis slow her down. The rescue provides full support, training, and backup for her insulin needs. If you’ve got cozy beds, a good window for sunbathing, and a soft spot for purring companionship, Boots will give you love and comfort in return. Adoption support is ongoing, and Boots is simply looking for a peaceful retirement spot. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
