POW

Rhoda, a 16-year-old spayed domestic shorthair mix, is a sweet, small, affectionate older cat who had to be relinquished because her owner was forced to move out of the country and did not want to stress Rhoda with such a long trip. She enjoys affection and is not super active, but she still gets around. She would love a home where she can live the rest of her life lounging in the sun streaming through the windows, and getting scritches when her humans arrive home. Rhoda is blind in one eye, and doesn’t have very many teeth, so she eats only canned food (but she has a good appetite). Potential adopters should know about senior cats and their care before taking on this sweet girl. All canine and feline adoptions from AHS include free extras, but the initial cost of a dog or cat is only part of the money a new owner will need to spend to properly care for a pet during its lifetime. Indoor cats can live to be 20-plus years with proper care, and Rhoda has been well-cared-for. She has been microchipped and dewormed, and is current on her vaccinations except rabies. She will be available at 2 p.m. today at the Atlanta Humane Society Howell Mill Campus, 981 Howell Mill Road N.W. Sealed bids will be accepted starting at 11 a.m. if more than one party is interested. Please note that the highest bidder must meet adoption qualifications.
