Peaches is in need of a foster or adopter! Are you ready to welcome this senior girl into your home? Peaches was adopted and had a life as a family member, but sadly was returned after 5 years. She’s definitely looking forward to making lasting memories with her new forever family. Sweet Peaches is affectionate, loves to chill on the couch, enjoys a good car ride, a long walk, and playing with her toys. Peaches will be a great addition to an adult only home. She is up to date on vaccinations, spayed, housebroken, and knows all basic commands. She has completed training at Creature Comfort Inn. Peaches is currently in boarding due to lack of available fosters. She is a strong girl that will need a strong leader. A consistent routine will help Peaches acclimate smoothly to her new home. She prefers to be the only animal in the home and has a strong prey drive, so small critters wouldn't fair well around this queen. Peaches has EPI (Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency), which means her pancreas doesn't produce enough enzymes to break down the food properly. The enzyme powder is added to her food at each meal. She also needs a B12 supplement. Please don't let EPI scare you. Peaches is a healthy senior girl, looking for her happily-ever-after!
