Juniper

Juniper is a senior declawed female that I accepted into my unofficial rescue because her owner was moving, couldn't take this nice cat along, and was going to euthanize her.  I couldn't let that happen!  Juniper has a lot of life and love left in her soft grey self.


This pretty girl turned sixteen on October 20, is front declawed, has good litterbox habits and is tolerant of other cats.  She only asks for a little attention and food every day and spends much of her time curled up on a little wicker rocking chair.  Her room has become the hang-out of second choice for some of my cats, the first being my office. 

She pretty successfully ignores the Coven of Harpies (all the females except Samantha); thinks kittens are worth a quick sniff or two; and accepts the fact that she shares the house with some very annoying dogs.

While she is doing just fine in my home, I think she would love to be in a less chaotic household, one with a human who didn't have to split her attention amongst so many others.  She's an undemanding girl and for now is happy with the random half-hours I can spend with her and a book.
