Tabby Girl Tuesday - Sheba

Meet our tabby friend, Sheba.  Isn't she beautiful?  Sheba came to PAWS after she had trouble adjusting to a new human baby in her house.  We can imagine that after years of being the child of the house, Sheba was confused and scared by the new little human's arrival. When we first met her, Sheba would literally sit with her back to us, staring at the back corner of her cage.  It made us so very sad.  But with love, patience and affection from the volunteers and staff, our "Sheebie" is starting to come out of her shell.  She now faces the front of the cage, loves catnip, and even gives cheek rubs to her favorite human friends. :)

Sheba is about 15 years old, spayed, microchipped, and up to date on all her vaccinations.  She has tested negative for FIV and FeLV.  She has lots of love to give, and would do best in a quiet home with no children or other animals.  Won't you give her the chance she so deserves?

  1. How sad to lose your home after so many years. No wonder she was facing the wall! And we're sure her old family must have felt bad about giving her up. We hope a loving family finds her soon so Sheba's life can get back on track.

    Meeting Moosey's esteemed mom and dad was the highlight of BlogPaws! You are every bit as nice and sweet as the mom thought! She is so excited that she had time to spend with you, and hopes to do it again next year.

    Oh, and thanks for the help trashing, Moosey! Who knew you were such a wild man!

  5. Sheba looks so sad it made Mum want to cry for her being unable to adapt to the baby. We hope someone will fall in love with her soon and take her home to be pampered.

  7. It made us very sad that Sheba was given up because she couldn't adjust to a new human baby. :( After having been the only baby for 15 years!
    We're glad PAWs gave her their all to help her come out of her shell. Well done, everyone!
    Her white marking between her eyes is so much like our Ling's. :)

  8. Dang, how could some human give up a beauty like Sheba in favor of a blurpy? We purr that she can find another home, but we know she is in good hands at PAWS.

    The mom said she so enjoyed meeting you and Tracey at BlogPaws!

  21. We wonder if she really couldn't adjust, or if her previous humans just couldn't be bothered helping her. Poor sweetheart. We're sending her purrs that she'll find a wonderful human to take her in.

    Our own human sometimes thinks that after we're gone, it would be so worthwhile to adopt senior kitties like this, if she can manage financially. So surely there must be someone for lovely Sheba.

  22. Argh. Some People are beyond understanding!! We hope Sheba finds someone to love her during her golden years. . . more than she was ever loved by a family who gave her up after all those years with them!!

  31. We just hate hearing about owner surrender and especially a very senior girl. We cannot imagine how anyone could live with a kitty that long and turn her in. We are glad she is with your rescue and we know that the right home will come for her, she is such a beauty.

  32. Thank you for all that you do! Its terrible when people do stuff like that. There are always ways to help kitties and doggies adjust but new pawents sometimes don't want to try. I will share in hopes she finds a furever home that will love her no matter what.

  37. Wow, what a sad story, our hearts break for her. We are very happy though that she ended up with the fantastic volunteers at PAWS where she will get tons of love and good care and hopefully come even more around to trusting humans again. We send our hugest purrs her way for her to find an amazing forever home that cherishes her so.

  46. Poor Sheba - so often people seem to get rid of the cat when they have a baby. What a shame, but let's hope she finds a new and loving home for the rest of her life.
