Good Golly Miss Molly!!! 160 days in care today!!
Has it nearly been 6 months already?
Molly came into our care on the 29th of September 2012, a sweet loving girl she was and she very quickly moved up for homing.
After a week or so we started to realise Molly wasn't our average moggie, and that she was a very bright intelligent girl! This meant that she quickly grew bored of us, her pen and being shut in it.
Molly started to only want to see us on her terms, she would have to come to you for fuss and some cats are just like this but Molly just seemed a little grumpier than the average cat. She wanted the attention and fuss but then would suddenly get annoyed. It was sad to see her like this, wanting to be loved yet being so irritable.
Over time we started to notice she wasn’t gaining much weight and increasingly asking for food so we got her blood tested and Molly has Hyperthyroidism.
And you guessed it, one of the most common signs is ...... Irritability!!!
Poor misunderstood Molly

An extremely intelligent cat, in a pen for almost 6months with a condition she just cannot understand.
Molly is now being treated for Hyperthyroidism and responding really well. Since she has been on her medication she has really relaxed and enjoys our company so much more. She has really bonded with Cat Carer Zan and our Volunteer Cat Socialisers.
What is hyperthyroidism?
There are many websites that can give you information on hyperthyroidism; we chose to link this site as we found it is very informal about the condition. http://www.fabcats.org/owners/hyperthyroidism/info.html
Also while Molly has been here, she has had some cosmetic surgery to remove a wart on her head!! We hoped that would cheer her up lol!
We hope that March will be Molly’s month with your help!
We would really like to get Molly homed this month and give her the home she truly deserves!
Cat carer Zan has fallen in love with Molly, here is what she has to say about her;
I love this cat! If I could have her, I would! However Molly needs to be in control and an only cat ( she wouldn't appreciate my 4 cats!). She certainly is a character and would make a fantastic addition to the right home. She has a very loving side too, she likes to elegantly perch on my lap and she just needs to be understood. She stretches out on her back legs to kiss your face which is most endearing! I know that the right home for Molly is out there, I'm gonna miss her like mad when she goes, but It will be worth it to know that she has found her happy ending at last.
