*AVAILABLE* in southwest, MI - Imma!

Imma is searching for her purrfect person that can handle her high maintenance love and energy. She would prefer not to share this special somebody with another cat.

She will be your side-by-side companion and help you with household chores. She will make sure you do not feel lonely! She gives affection by rubbing on your face and head. She will get on your shoulders to style your hair! She's also a mouthy kisser.

Imma's a young lady around 1.5 years old. Spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and negative for FIV/FeLV. Her adoption fee is sponsored! You can schedule a date with this lovely lady upon an approved application, found here https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSf2dIYViLhKXSiy5s88hv31CoSfWpQuMRPVISfJww0aHfjl-w/viewform?pli=1

It's this kinda love we hope you can feel through our posts. It's genuine. He really *is* smiling.

This dog WAS so desperate. He was in this hidden backyard, surrounded by tall brick walls on three sides (which was only beneficial in terms of windbreak).

But he was alone. And not even somewhere his guardian could actually SEE him. A social, loving pack animal--alone. That's not how it's supposed to be.

And he barked and barked. And cried and cried. Because he hadn't given up yet. And we echoed his sentiments with our human voices repeatedly to his guardian. But human stubbornness is real.

When we realized that life inside wasn't ever going to be a reality here, we pushed for surrender. We got told "no," in very colorful ways, repeatedly. There was a lot of anger and spite. And we get that. Because everyone DESERVES a dog, BUT every circumstance doesn't automatically make that possible with the dog's best interest foremost.

These are difficult conversations.

These may not be "our" dogs but we care about them as if they were. And we never give up.

A vet visit is next.

But the real living has already began.
