Florence Nightingale
Toronto Humane Society
I adopted Florence Nightingale (previously Tahlia) on October 17, 2013. She was found while pregnant and delivered kittens at the humane society (all kittens had been adopted by the time I met her). When I first saw Flo she was meowing and reaching her tiny paws out of the cage. She was very thin and the staff told me she rarely ate. When I put my fingers to the cage she started licking my fingers and I instantly fell in love.
Flo has been right beside me ever since I took her home (minus a day of hiding). I was hoping for an affectionate, cuddly cat, and boy is that ever what I found! Flo meets me at the door every day, and follows me around the house like a loyal puppy. She is never far from my side, and prefers to be in my arms or lying against me. If dogs are man’s best friend then cats must be woman’s best friend because I cannot imagine a more loving animal. I can confidently say that Flo is happy, energetic and living life to the fullest! She also is a great eater now and is a healthy weight with a beautiful shiny coat.
I would strongly encourage anyone who is looking for an animal to remember the full grown cats. They are just as full of love as the kittens, and probably more grateful to find a loving home after a rough start to life.
Thank you for saving this beautiful cat. I will forever be grateful for the love you showed both her and her kittens.
Sincerely
Katie and Flo
