Isis was beautiful girl –
a pale peachy champagne color with a hint of a ridge down her back.
She looked like the Burmese cats in the books.
She was streamlined, exotic and gorgeous!
She loved to talk when trying to get attention.
Once she found affection and a cozy lap to curl up in she was quiet
and would purr loudly. She
loved to roll over for tummy rubs and nearly turned somersaults to get the
attention of anyone passing by. She
was the sweetest and most gentle cat you would ever meet, yet she would
attack her scratching post with great passion!
Isis had cataracts and when she came to us she hadn’t had eye drops for
awhile
and her owner thought she was going blind.
Her eyes had a sort of pale gray veil over them.
However, when back on her eye drops her eyes cleared up and she
could see well. Isis also had
a sensitive tummy but other than that was healthy kitty.
She was lovable and
adorable but was not adopted because of little things like eye drops.
Unfortunately, her advanced age was also a problem with most potential
adopters.
She loved getting under the
covers and spent a cozy winter here. Then
she did get a nice foster home for awhile with a couple where the got a
lot of nurturing and love. Unfortunately,
she was a very noisy girl and people who need to go to work in the morning
need a better night’s rest! Isis
came back to the rescue where she had her own room since she did not like
other cats.
Isis then went to a foster
home with a nice family and had a great time the first week.
After that she came down with an illness and we brought her back
for medical care. Poor little
Isis, the most exuberant of all the rescue kitties here, was knocked for a
loop with a serious illness and did not recover.
She went to sleep peacefully and passed away here in her “home”
at the rescue. Isis loved
people and was the gentlest and yet most social cat we have had.
Her raspy meow is greatly missed…
