Description:
Bow down to the beautiful, show-stopping, dazzling Princess Paw! Despite being found as a stray, Princess Paw quickly rose to royalty with her well kempt coat and friendly personality. Princess Paw is ready to rule over your heart and home with her adorable antics! Princess Paw is a princess of the people, always greeting staff and volunteers, and inviting them over with a cordial meow. When she isn't tending to her loyal subjects, she can be found curled up, getting her beauty sleep or batting around her toys with grace and elegance. Looks and charm aside, Princess Paw is a special gal who needs a very special adoptive home. She came to PAWS with a higher-than-average heart murmur (a grade 5 out of 6), which increases her risk of complication during surgeries. You can learn more about heart murmurs here! PAWS does not have the equipment or resources to confirm whether Princess Paw's murmur comes with any secondary heart conditions, and can't fully confirm how long of a lifespan she may have, though it may well be shorter than the average cat's. As a result of the murmur and increased riskiness of surgery, PAWS will be adopting out this nugget unspayed to the right family who is understanding of her heart condition, and who will ideally seek follow-up care and diagnostics (and/or medication) when needed, through their own full service vet, including cardiology care if recommended. This adorable lady is looking to upgrade her life and finally get the castle she deserves: your home! With her majestic purr and enchanting eyes, Princess Paw will make you feel like the luckiest subject in her kingdom. Adopt Princess Paw and live with royalty!
