Cat in Bay City, MI needs forever home

Crossposting this for someone on a local message board.

"Addison was found on our client's front porch. They breed Cavalier King Charles Spaniels and have a litter of puppies at home so they couldn't keep her. She is the sweetest cat! We guess she is young, around 1 year old. She must have had kittens because two of her breasts are swollen. We have been having problems getting the swelling down, but are making progress. She is a wonderfully sweet cat. She was tested for feline leukemia and AIDS (both negative), given rabies and feline distemper combo vaccines, and has been spayed. She still has all her claws. She is a beautiful white girl with just a smudge of black on her head. She is not very fond of dogs, but would adapt I'm sure to a calm dog that ignored her. I don't want her to go to a home with young children as she is rather skittish with noises. She does not seem to like seeing other cats, but is not overly aggressive towards them. She more just wants to avoid them. If you can handle a few mild encounters she would probably adapt to living with another cat also.

Addison likes to cuddle and get lots of attention. When left alone, she likes to snooze on the couch or the stairway.

Won't you please spread the word that this wonderful girl is looking for her forever home! I already have 9 cats of my own and CAN NOT have any more. The clinic is so busy with boarders that I brought her home for the weekend to keep her in a room in my house, but being caged or separated from the main living area is no fun for a cat. Please help me find her a home as wonderful as she is."

She was also able to get Addison posted on Petfinder search.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=8353188

New post made today...

"Addison finally added one more stipulation to her list of "wants" in her new home. Along with plenty of love, attention, cuddling, food, more food, and play time, Addison wants to be an only kitty. She does not get along with other cats at all. She's a bully. Dogs don't seem to be as big of a problem, as long as they don't get in her face.

Addison is staying at work while I'm in Florida for the weekend. Wendy was out during lunch and there was a food kibble outside of Addison's floor level cage. Wendy walked up beside the cage to eat the kibble. Addi sniffed her once, touched her with her paw (no claws), then started to growl and hiss and swatted at her through the cage (with claws). Poor Wendy was so upset! So, I decided I will not be adopting Addison out to anyone with another cat in their household, or anyone who plans to possibly get another cat. And sadly this will make her even hard to find a loving home for.

She's a wonderful and loving cat. I've gotten very attached to her in the past months. I will try to get more pictures of her up soon. The first ones don't do her justice. She was underweight then. Now she's a little more plump, ok, a lot more plump."

Addi will be going home next week!

"... They were both very nice and Addison loved them. She will be an only kitty, which is what she wanted, with a Golden for a companion."

WONDERFUL news! I hope you will have some updates on her!

Thanks! :-)

I'll only have them if the new home provides them to the the original rescuer, then if she in turn posts to the message board. Then in turn you only get an update if i remember to cross post... Which i honestly will do my best. Sometimes it's a full year or longer before we get posted updates.
