Hester was rescued from a hoarding house. Her owner, who at one time had over 50 cats, is elderly and blind and therefore found it difficult to adequately provide the care Hester and the other cats needed. Though the environment wasn't ideal, Hester did get the love she needed to flourish, which shows in her loving personality. Hester is a very special cat. She is one of the sweetest, most affectionate cats, always wanting to be on your lap or at the very least next to you. If you leave, Hester will wait patiently for you to return and then will be right by your side. She absolutely loves attention and wants to be the center of someone’s world. She's a confident kitty who only needed only a few hours to adjust to her new foster home! Hester loves to eat and enjoys cuddling up in a warm spot or in the cat tree. Hester would be fine in a house with other cats. She is 14 years old. Hester is vetted and spayed. Hester is a special situation because she is FIV positive and also has chronic ear issues (which are currently being addressed) and will need to be monitored. Born 5/23/2006
