Can You Adopt a Cat on a Tight Budget?
Adopting a cat doesn't have to be expensive. With smart budgeting and the right resources, even those on a tight income can provide a loving, healthy home for a feline companion.
Meet Fillmore, a happy and resilient Shih Tzu mix with a huge personality and an even bigger heart! Despite his very limited vision, this 8-9 year old senior navigates his world with impressive confidence, always eager to explore and play. Fillmore is affectionate, food-motivated, and loves a good nap in a cozy lap. He thrives with a canine playmate and requires a home that communicates through voice and touch. A securely fenced yard is essential, and a family without young children would be ideal for this sweet, curious companion.
