About Granny May

Meet Granny May! Don’t be fooled by her name—she’s a fabulous, slightly seasoned lady with an outsized heart. At just over six years old, she came in as a stray, and since then, Granny May has been quietly winning everyone over with her gentle, affectionate nature. She loves nothing more than curling up on the couch with her favorite people, showing off her endearing wiggle, and giving you soulful looks that make even the hardest day easier. Once Granny May bonds with you, she’s glued at your side: a devoted snuggle buddy, ever-loyal companion, and steady shadow. She’s truly exceptional with kids—supremely patient and sweet, she forms strong, loving connections with the little ones. Granny May is naturally protective over her family and her territory. She prefers a proper introduction to new people, remaining watchful but never aggressive. Once she knows you, you are part of her trusted circle. Granny May would flourish as the only pet in a calm, structured home where she can soak up all the good things life has to offer (and wouldn’t mind having the couch to herself). She is heartworm positive, but her treatment is entirely covered by the rescue, so she’s more than ready to trade stray life for home comforts and years of love. Fun fact: with a birthday on November 18, Granny May is a Scorpio—loyal, observant, and always a bit mysterious. Click apply to start the adoption process.
