Hi there, I'm Okesha, or Thing One, some might say.. I am the quiet, laidback senior sister with a heart full of love and an appreciation for belly rubs and ear scratches. I'm as sweet as honey...always ready to greet you with my soft loving eyes, slow saunter and the wag of my tail. My sister Josie tends to be an attention-hog, but I will certainly try to get my own time in when I see her getting extra loving.
Although I am an older, larger lady, I still love to romp around outside and be active. Since arriving at HSLM and implementing a consistent feeding schedule and enrichment routine (including daily walks, outdoor play time etc.,) into my daily life, my weight has come down and I am feeling great! I know my limits and might be a bit slower than Josie, but I have the drive to get what I want. I am a bit stubborn, but in all the best ways.
My sister Josie and I are inseparable, we've shared all of our greatest and hardest moments together, including transitioning into the shelter in our later years. Our friends at HSLM learned quickly that we're a package deal and we don't do anything apart, and we have been amazing house-guests for our foster family. We feel that we are best as a duo, but could be open to a laid back kitty friend with a slow introduction. Josie can be dog selective, and I definitely feed off of her energy as a protective sister. Our favourite things include basking in the outdoors and food. We will announce our love for you out loud, so a detached home with a yard may be best.
If you're ready for double the love and double the laughs, fill out an application to adopt us! Completed applications can be sent to our Adoptions Department for review at adoptions@hslm.ca. If we seem like a good fit, the Adoptions Team will reach out to book a meet.
Before going home a member of our Animal Health Department would like to speak with you about our required Urinary Diet!
