Meet Tootsie, a beautifully mottled tortoiseshell sweetheart with a heart full of love and a story that tugs at yours. When she was just a kitten, Tootsie experienced a significant injury that led to the amputation of one back leg and part of her tail. However, despite the challenges she’s faced, Tootsie greets life with resilience and spirit.

Tootsie can be a tad bit shy at first, but once she trusts you, she melts into the most affectionate companion, leaning into chin scratches and belly rubs like she’s waited her whole life for them. She also has a playful streak and absolutely loves batting at wand toys—especially the ones that jingle! She gets along well with other cats and would love to share a home with other playful feline companions.

Tootsie’s injury left her incontinent, so she needs a little extra help with daily care. She requires human help to go to the bathroom at least twice a day. However, we know that with patience and the right guidance (our staff will teach you everything you need to know), she’ll thrive.

If you’re the kind of person who sees beauty in the unique and strength in the vulnerable, Tootsie just might be your perfect match. Fill out an online adoption application today and come meet her!
