For the Love of Cats Promotes Seniors for Seniors

For the Love of Cats, a non-profit rescue organization committed to saving the lives of cats and kittens in Collier County is celebrating National Adopt a Senior Pet Month by promoting their Seniors for Seniors Program.

Their Seniors for Seniors program covers any adoption fees for senior cats (7+) adopted by senior adults (60+) from all Naples rescue organizations. For the Love of Cats also provides a PetSmart e-Gift Card to help welcome their new family member home.

“Senior cats are often overlooked in shelters. Senior adults can be lonely. It's a perfect match!” says For the Love of Cats founder Jan Rich. “Older cats can languish in shelters for years and most struggle to get adopted. Our program is designed to promote senior cat adoption and help give senior adults a new friend so they both can enjoy life together.”

For the Love of Cats has teamed up with Collier County Domestic Animal Services (DAS) to help promote two of their senior cats who need a new home.

Meet Olive. Olive is a sweet and gentle eight-year-old tabby. Olive has been at DAS for a few months and was declawed by her previous owner. Olive will do well in a calm household, where she will spend most of the day lounging. If you are looking for a loving and quiet companion, Olive is the one for you.

If you are interested in Olive, her ID number is #A282617 at Collier County Domestic Animal Services.

Meet Thomas. Thomas is a loving and calm 10-year-old tabby. Thomas has been at DAS since September. Thomas will do well in a household with many windows, so he can spend his day perched up, watching the activity outside. Thomas would be purrfect if you are looking for a cuddly and sweet companion.

If you are interested in Thomas, his ID number is #A214801 at Collier County Domestic Animal Services.

If you would like to meet Olive or Thomas, call Domestic Animal Services at 239-252-7387.
