423 Days in Our Shelter—Help Us Find this Senior Kitty a Home!

Monday, July 16, 2012 - 10:15am
ASPCA Adoptable Cat

Noni has been under our care for 423 days—and that is just way too long. She's receiving lots of attention and socialization with us, but even the ASPCA Adoption Center is no substitute for a loving family.

Noni is one of the prettiest, softest tuxie ladies we've ever seen, and she loves interacting with people, whether she's chasing a toy or receiving a few snuggles. But Noni's life has been anything but easy. She once lived in a hoarding home, and she came to us emaciated; we soon discovered that Noni had an untreated hyperthyroid condition. Our dedicated veterinary staff got Noni back on track, and now she is healthy and flourishing.

But Noni's adopter will need to keep her healthy, and that means not only twice-daily medicine for hyperthyroidism but special food for her sensitive tummy.

We can't wait to see Noni's story of triumph and recovery close with a happy ending, and neither can she. If you've got room in your heart for a special lady like Noni, please consider meeting her today at the ASPCA Adoption Center in NYC. Noni enjoys other cats and wouldn't mind a home with a resident feline friend. If you have any questions, please call the Adoption Desk at (212) 876-7700, ext. 4900.

If you can't bring her home, please share her on Facebook and Twitter. Online fans: You've helped us find homes for animals before—let's do it again for Noni!

i would take this beautiful angel right now, i live in germany and i think it might be too much stress to have her flown here. i got 5 cats, they are my babies, and one that looks just like noni...... all of mine are rescues.... if for some reason i could get her here, i would take her in a heart beat.

I am always happy to help transport cats -- including Noni -- as part of a transportation chain. I live in Southeastern Virginia (Portsmouth/Norfolk area), and am happy to be kept on a list. I would adopt her myself, but have five of my own and two ferals for whom I care.

She is so sweet! I want to adopt her and will contact ASPCA tomorrow. I live in NY and have a 1 1/2 year old boy, Fernando, that looks very much like Noni. I think Fernando would like to have a big sis!

Thu, 07/26/2012 - 23:21 — jordan (Visitor)
i hope you adopt her- i have been following her and hoping she will find a home!!! please keep us updated

Mon, 07/30/2012 - 17:50 — Darlene (Visitor)
She's still available for adoption, I just called.

If you decide to adopt Noni, you can easily get meds in the form of either tasty chicken or beef treats (double entendre) or a transdermal cream that you apply to one of her inner ears in order to treat her hyperthyroidism. Either of these formulations (transdermal cream or chicken/meat flavored treat) can be purchases from any compounding pharmacy & usually cost the same as a pill that you then have to convince her to swallow. The transdermal cream didn't work well w/ my female fur baby, as her thoughtful & loving brother would always like lick the cream off after I applied it. So I transitioned to the treats. BTW, once you have Noni on a stable dose, I do recommend buying her treats in a 90-day supply increment, as this is significantly cheaper than purchasing a 30-day supply. But before you do that, please be sure Noni is on a stable dose of thyroid medication. These are just a few suggestions :). Good luck & I hope Noni finds a home before the holidays!!!

Please let me know if she's been adopted. I am in NJ and I would like to know. We have 2 cats we adopted and want to see Nonni be adopted by a loving family. PLEASE let me know - I will be worried about her!!!! Thank you.

HAS NONI BEEN ADOPTED? I LIVE IN JERSEY AS WELL AND IF SHE NEEDS A HOME I CAN PROVIDE ONE FOR HER.

Mon, 07/30/2012 - 17:48 — Darlene (Visitor)
She is still available for adoption. I just called.

Tue, 07/31/2012 - 23:01 — jordan (Visitor)
if you can provide a home for her, please please call the aspca directly! this poor girl has been there for almost a year and a half!

Sat, 07/28/2012 - 20:17 — Kathy Knudsen (Visitor)
Did she find a home? Please tell me she got a loving home! I really want to hear that!

Sun, 07/29/2012 - 12:21 — Cindi (Visitor)
Please call the ASPCA directly at the number provided if you are interested in this beautiful cat. It would be a shame for her to have to stay with them if you are willing to take her in. I don't think they monitor this page so they don't see posts from interested people. So, please CALL them directly.

Continental handled my greyhound and they were great...if u do fly her put in a large water bottle like for smaller animals.

Mon, 07/30/2012 - 17:47 — Darlene (Visitor)
I just called the shelter and asked if NoniI has been adopted and she is still available for adoption. All of you who posted you are interested, please go adopt her.

Wed, 08/01/2012 - 00:47 — Pamela (Visitor)
I hope that sweet lovable gorgeous precious Noni has been adopted and has a loving furrever home that she so much deserves! She has waited way too long! I wish I could give you a loving home where you would be so loved and cared for, but my circumstances are impossible right now! God bless you precious! Love you lots with cuddles and kisses!

Sun, 08/05/2012 - 22:32 — Marjorie Morales (Visitor)
I live in NY in Westchester and would like to have Noni if she getws along with other cats. My place is small and I have two brother cats ages 5 and 6

Wed, 08/08/2012 - 20:31 — Cate (Visitor)
I'm a proud mom of 4 rescues and would love to see Noni adopted. Although my "throw away" kitties all appeared to be healthy when I brought them home one has developed diabetes and one has numerous birth defects. In the last 3 years I have accumulated $8000 in debt to cover their medical expenses. Do I regret keeping them? Absolutely not! I would just ask, that people really think before adopting an animal with special needs and be prepared to care for your pet as they age.

I wish I could I'm in California. I have 3 younger cats but I love my seniors too! I hope someone isn't just talk and really snags this gal. If you have concerns about the meds I'm sure there are resources available. I have care credit which I keep for emergency vet care and I get a year no interest and the most my payments were was 67 a mo for 800 dollars worth of credit. Please keep us updated. I'm shocked no one has adopted her. :(

I am looking to adopt a cat with hyperthyroidism. I have a 14 year old on y/d, no meds, and would like a friend for her. I rescued Slick at 14 with her illness and she is doing good. I live in Seabrook, NH and can visit anywhere in NE to find a pal for her.

How is she with dogs? I have 4 geriatric dogs.

Wed, 11/14/2012 - 22:11 — Lisa Higgins (Visitor)
I can take Noni but I live in N.C. and would need to coordinate transportation. I have 5 small dogs and I work from home. All of my dogs are terrific with cats because they lived with mine for 14 years. My Lily passed this past July and I still have much of her "kitty suite" in place. I am all set up to care very well for a geriatric kitty and the meds twice per day are no problem. I already have a geriatric doggy on meds twice per day. There are no children in my home and I am here all day. In fact, there are 5 dog beds under my desk and the kitty corner is also in my office. Basically I work with 5 dogs snoring at my feet all day. And the kitty would have a cozy window hammock with a heating pad to lounge upon and find respite from nosy pooches, need be. Please contact me if we can arrange for Miss Noni to come live in North Carolina. P.S. No kitties are allowed outdoors. It's too dangerous. In fact, all my critters live to old age. I am extremely protective. They are my universe.

I live in California and would love to take the baby !.. If someone can arrange to have her brought to me... or if I need to go to the airport to get the baby.. I WANT HER/HIM

Where is Noninvasive located, how old is she? Is she spayed? And how is she with a dog? Our cat of seven hrs approx. Got hit by a car, and would love another shelter cat. But not sure about the cost.

Wed, 11/14/2012 - 22:47 — Rachel (Visitor)
Noni is 11 years old, which makes her less likely to be adopted. It would be fantastic if you could look beyond her age and see what a wonderful personality she has. Be prepared to care for medical issues because she is an older girl, but if you truly fall in love with her and have the funds this shouldn't be an issue. All animals at the ASPCA are spayed. All animals can be introduced to each other if it is done properly. She does not get contact with the dogs at the Adoption Center, but you can bring your dog in and see how they get along (please call first and let the ASPCA know). Keep in mind that these things take time.

The spam is annoying. I have to say...I had my KittyKato for 4 years..then.he darted out from the person who was watching him while I had to be away from home. Got him back 4 years later thanks to the microchip...he lived a very happy life until he was TWENTY. Don't let her age deter you!
