Many people prefer to adopt kittens because they are easier to handle than senior cats. However, adopting a senior cat requires careful consideration of their health and other support needs. Despite this, providing a loving home for senior cats who would otherwise remain in shelters is worth the time and effort. This heartwarming story is about Gus, a 19-year-old charming senior cat from North Carolina who was surrendered to the Humane Society of Catawba County when his owner could no longer care for him. Luckily, Gus was adopted a month later by Penny, a 101-year-old woman who was looking for a furry companion. Meet Gus, a distinguished gentleman who now has a loving home with Penny.
His previous owner had to give him up due to a situation where they were unable to provide for Gus.
Gus was a remarkable cat, and he was loved by everyone at the shelter.
Despite his advanced age, he remained quite active and relished spending time with his caregivers.
He became available for adoption after being surrendered to the shelter, and within a month, he found a new home.
The caretaker of his new vehicle was an elderly woman named Penny, who was 101 years old. Penny’s previous feline companion had sadly passed away, and she was searching for a new furry friend.
Penny and Gus developed an instant bond and have been inseparable ever since. According to Penny’s family, they were specifically looking for a senior cat for her, and Gus was the perfect choice as a companion for the elderly lady. Gus is settling comfortably into his new home and thriving under their care. One of his hobbies includes observing the neighborhood squirrels as they enjoy their food.
We are overjoyed that Penny and Gus have found each other again after both experiencing the loss of their beloved companions due to unforeseen circumstances. Here’s to Penny and Gus, hoping for many more years of happiness together as this incredible duo!
