About Willy

Willy’s backstory is somewhat of a mystery, but she is a remarkable little lady who's ready for her next chapter. At around six years old, she may be partially blind, but that hasn’t dimmed her spirit. Rescued after a painful bout with glaucoma that led to the removal of one eye, Willy quickly became known for her sweet and affectionate nature. From day one, she has brought smiles to everyone, eagerly flopping over for pets and scratches. This gentle soul is low-maintenance for a blind cat. A predictable home layout is all she needs to map out her surroundings, and she prefers not to be approached suddenly. Willy gets along well with polite pets; she thrives in a respectful environment. Managing her hyperthyroidism requires daily medication, but she is incredibly cooperative when it comes to taking it. With many years of purring and sunbathing ahead, Willy is the kind of companion who will fill your days with warmth and joy. Ready to give this sweet girl a loving home?
