Meow! My name is Macy. My estimated date of birth is 6/1/2023, and I’m a lovely 2-year-old brown tabby girl with a gentle heart and an independent spirit.

I’m what you’d call a low-maintenance lady. I like to do my own thing and march to the beat of my own drum. I enjoy having my space and choosing when it’s time for affection. But independence does not mean unfriendly! When I come up and give you a little tap or brush against you, that’s my way of saying, “Hi, I like you.” Once I start, I love rubbing against your legs and soaking up gentle pets. Being picked up isn’t really my style, but I’m very happy showing love in my own sweet way.

Now let’s talk about something important: I am FELV+. Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV) is a virus that affects cats’ immune systems. It is spread only between cats (not to people or other types of animals) through close contact like grooming, sharing bowls, or bite wounds. Because FeLV can weaken the immune system over time, FeLV+ kitties may be more prone to infections and need a little extra care.

What does that mean for me?

I should live indoors to stay safe and healthy.

I should live with other FeLV+ cats or be the only cat in the home.

I’ll need regular veterinary checkups to monitor my health.

With good nutrition, low stress, and proper care, many FeLV+ cats live happy, comfortable lives for years.

I currently live peacefully with another FeLV+ kitty Stormy in my foster home, and we get along well. I’m playful with other animals and really enjoy toys—especially when I can bat, chase, and show off my fun side.

And speaking of important things… FOOD TIME is my favorite time! I absolutely love meals and get very excited when I hear them being prepared. A tasty dinner and a cozy home are the way to my heart.

I may require a little understanding because of my FeLV status, but in return you’ll get a confident, playful, affectionate-on-my-terms companion who will fill your home with quiet charm and tabby sweetness. If you’re looking for a special girl who just needs a safe indoor home and a loving human, I could be your Macy.

She's been waiting 18 days for someone to come get her.

Mission : Our mission is to do what we can, for as many as we can and hopefully one day no longer be needed!

Our Inspiration :

Vega's New Leash on Life was founded because, and named after, a rescued Flat-Coat / Lab Retriever mix named Vega who came to be a part of our family when my boyfriend brought her with him to live with us. She fell quickly into the matriarchal role in our pack of pups at home. She was always by your side and happy to follow you around the house wagging her tail. She was one of the most loyal dogs I ever had the privilege to live with. She reminded me of my childhood dog, a black lab named Bianca.

In August of 2012 I came home to work over lunch to find her being a bit lazy but wagging her tail nonetheless. In a few short but whirlwind hours she went from acting a bit ill to passing away at the vets office from an apparent unidentified tumor. At the age of 7 or 8 years old, she left us way too soon! After trying to settle into life without her in the pack of now 5 pups, we soon realized that her spot in the pack needed to be filled. There was no doubt that it needed to be filled by another rescue. After weeks of searching online I found a 4-5 month old puppy who appeared to be about the same breed and looked like an angel! We started the adoption process and within a few weeks were wrapped up in a world of rescues, shelters and transports. We made the 10+ hour drive to the shelter where she was being cared for in Bamberg, SC where we met an amazing man named Bob who devotes his time to helping the helpless. The shelter was a ram shackled place with about 40 dogs who had been abandoned or lost. Each and every one touched our hearts and we wished we could take them all home. While we were there to get her we helped to rescue two abandoned puppies from a culvert under the road. It was then that we knew that we had found our calling!

Upon her arrival at her furever homeâ¦ she was greeted by the other dogs with lots of sniffs and settled in quickly as the missing member of the pack. She fit like a glove! On our first walk that first night she led me by leash to our front yard and made a b-line to the tree where we had too recently buried our precious Vega. She walked slowly to her gravesite and bowed her head and âwhisper-barkedâ and walked back toward the house. As if to say âit is okay, I will take care of themâ! After spending an hour crying in disbelief, I knew she was exactly what we neededâ¦ and we were exactly what she needed!

From that moment on we have been dedicated to do our best to not allow any other of man's best friends to go without all that they deserve! And here we are today.
