About Sweetums

Meet Sweetums, a delightful senior cat ready to be your cherished lap companion. This affectionate lady rushes to greet her humans, eagerly asking for pets and cuddling up in laps. She's a pro at making biscuits, and despite her age, Sweetums has plenty of energy for playtime with her catnip toys, especially when tasty wet food is involved. Sweetums has been diagnosed with a heart murmur, and her ear tips show signs of hair loss possibly due to previous trauma. While her beautiful white and calico coat is stunning, it’s important to monitor for any changes, as more serious health issues may arise. She's in need of some future veterinary care to ensure her health is managed moving forward. Don't miss the chance to add this lovable lap cat to your home!
