Gracie

Our poor darling Gracie is back in our care, and she is once again searching for a forever home that will finally treat her the way she deserves.

She is such a sweet, smoochy, affectionate and wonderful kitty with so much love to give, despite everything she has been through.

Some of you may remember Gracie, but for those of you who don’t, allow us to recap what little kitty has been through in the past year:

Gracie was first found as a stray and was taken in by a family who were caring for her, however when they got a new puppy Gracie became so frightened that she ran away and was hit by a car. She didn’t receive veterinary treatment for 3 days and was suffering in severe pain – due to the circumstances, Gracie’s family were no longer able to keep her, but thankfully she found her way into the care of AAPS where her long journey to recovery began.

After months of surgery, TLC, physiotherapy and rehabilitation, Gracie was finally read to find a new home, and in August last year she went into what we thought was going to be her forever home… sadly this was not the case.

A very kind neighbour of Gracie’s adopter informed us that only 3 months after she was adopted, Gracie was left behind when her new owner moved away, being forced to fend for herself outside in the elements. The lovely neighbour cared for Gracie for 6 months offering her food and shelter before bringing her back to us last week as Gracie and her cats were not able to get along. As truly grateful as we were to know she was safe, we were devastated for Gracie. No kitty should have to go through this much trauma in one lifetime.

So gorgeous Gracie is once again searching for a home that will love her, be loyal to her and treat her with the respect and kindness she deserves. As you can imagine, this experience has left her feeling very vulnerable – so she is looking for a kind and patient family who will give her time to learn to trust and love again.

She would prefer a home with older/teenage children, and she would be best suited as the only pet in the home.

We know your true family is out there Gracie, and we won’t rest until we find them for you.
