About Ladybug

Ladybug is a loving, cuddly cat who craves being close and would gladly spend every moment wrapped in your arms. Abandoned and found roadside, she’s since adapted brilliantly in foster care and brings her gentle, affectionate spirit to any home. Ladybug was born with Manx syndrome, which means she needs her bladder expressed three times a day and wears her incontinence with remarkable patience—she makes things as easy as she can for her humans. A raw diet keeps her bowel needs manageable, and her easygoing nature shines through with every daily routine. This calico gets along well with both cats and dogs and doesn’t hesitate to show affection to anyone in her circle. She’s spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and tested negative for FIV/FeLV. While a recent exam did reveal a Grade 2 heart murmur, she isn’t showing any signs of heart failure. Ladybug is in Stoughton, WI, and comes with a generous adoption package if you visit select pet stores after adoption. This is a cat who turns special requirements into a daily act of trust and affection. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
