Surrendered in Her Golden Years, Sweet Cinnamon Waits for Love

Updated: Nov 21


Cinnamon, a 13-year-old orange tabby, witnessed her world unravel when her beloved owner passed away. A recent Instagram post by Orange County Animal Services' volunteer photographer Albert Harris revealed that the family had concerns about Cinnamon's health. The relatives of the deceased owner characterized Cinnamon as being quite selective with her food choices, noting her litterbox habits seemed to fluctuate, and she was prone to bouts of diarrhea. Instead of stepping in to provide care and compassion, the owner's family surrendered Cinnamon to Orange County Animal Services, citing family allergies.

Since arriving at the shelter, Cinnamon has been eating well and consistently using her litter box, proving that care and stability were all she needed. Despite the heartbreak of abandonment in her senior years, the sweet cat's loving nature remains intact, and she adores attention.

 

Senior cats like Cinnamon often find themselves overshadowed by their younger counterparts. Playful kittens with boundless energy draw potential adopters' attention away from older cats' gentle and serene presence. By choosing to adopt a senior cat, you're not just giving them a home but also making a powerful statement about the value of all life stages.

 

Cinnamon deserves more than to spend her golden years in a shelter. If you're ready to give Cinnamon the loving home she's been waiting for, contact Orange County Animal Services.
