About Marigold

Marigold is a sweet and lovely kitten in need of a hospice adopter. She has a severe grade 6 heart murmur, meaning her life may be short, and while she plays and enjoys life now, it’s important to understand the journey ahead. She cannot undergo anesthesia, so she must be an indoor-only cat and cannot be spayed. As time progresses, she may experience a decline in health, potentially needing humane euthanasia if necessary. Despite her condition, Marigold remains a joyful spirit. She adores people, interacts well with other cats, and loves playing. Treats are her weakness, and she will snuggle up next to you at night, sharing her affection wholeheartedly. If you are prepared to support her through whatever comes next, you will gain a loving companion. Give her the love she deserves. Click apply to start the adoption process.
