Furry Friends Friday - Champagne

COLUMBIA, S.C. (WIS) - Champagne is an 11-year-old Ragdoll cat available for adoption at Pawmetto Lifeline.

Champagne’s owner was injured in a car accident and is now facing a long road to recovery. Because of this, she had to make the heartbreaking decision to surrender Champagne and several other cats, hoping they would find loving homes where they could live their best lives.

Champagne is a super sweet, fluffy senior cat with beautiful blue eyes. Like most Ragdolls, Champagne has a very calm, gentle personality. He enjoys being brushed, petted, and spending time with his people. He loves attention, makes lots of “biscuits,” gives adorable head butts, and is happy to be held and cuddled. If you’re looking for a quiet, affectionate companion, Champagne may be the perfect match.

In his previous home, Champagne was exposed to a cat with Feline Leukemia (FeLV). He has already tested negative, which is great news, but he’ll need one more test in December to be sure. In the meantime, these precautions are simply to ensure accurate testing and the best possible care for Champagne.

Champagne has lived with other cats and gets along well with them. However, because of his FeLV exposure, he will need to be separated from other cats until he is retested in December, or be the only cat in the home, which he certainly wouldn’t mind, especially if it means getting all of your attention!

Champagne is considered a “Priority Pet” which comes with lots of great perks through Pawmetto Lifeline! He receives one free annual exam, all annual vaccines at no cost, and any medications he may need in his lifetime at cost plus 10%.

You can meet Champagne at Pawmetto Lifeline this Friday and Saturday, June 12 & 13, during walk-in adoption hours from 10:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and 1:00 to 5:00 p.m. Appointments are also available for approved adopters during the week. Champagne’s reduced adoption fee of $25 includes his neuter, microchip, and up-to-date vaccines.

Get a head start on the adoption process by completing an adoption application online before your visit at www.pawmettolifeline.org/adoption. Pawmetto Lifeline is located at 1275 Bower Parkway in Columbia, South Carolina.
