Philadelphia, PA – An elderly cat named Meeka finds herself sitting in an animal shelter cage in the twilight of her life. The nearly 16-year-old cat is still open to love and hopeful that someone might find it in their heart to love a senior girl like her.
On Wednesday, the Pennsylvania SPCA said,
“‘What is Real?'” asked the Velveteen Rabbit.”
“Real isn’t how you are made. It’s a thing that happens to you. When [someone] loves you for a long, long time… then you become Real.”
Like the Velveteen Rabbit, Meeka was loved. And over 14 years, she became real.
Her fur isn’t as supple as it once was, her joints don’t move as freely, and her movement has slowed, but as told in the story, once you are real you cannot become unreal again. Meeka’s heart is still open to love.
Sweet Meeka wants to be loved. Will you please help her find someone who can take her in and show her kindness for the remainder of her life? She would adore spending her days in a warm lap, enjoying chin scratches and love.
