Dorie

Full Title: Senior Clinic Cat / Warmth Seeker / Judge and Jury

Dorie joined the clinic team in 2010 and has been quietly running the place ever since. Originally surrendered due to obesity and difficulty grooming herself, Dorie has thrived under careful dietary management and now enjoys life at a healthy, comfortable weight—though she still believes food theft is a perfectly valid form of enrichment.

She spends most of her days in the Treatment room, typically found curled up on a heating pad or cocooned in freshly warmed towels. Her closest companion is Nadine, whose arms serve as Dorie’s preferred mode of transport. When she makes her way up to Reception, she can usually be found in Lorie’s lap, acting as a feline paperweight.

Dorie is beloved for her sweet demeanor, judgmental expression, and excessive drooling—a trifecta of charm that endears her to staff and clients alike. Though she always looks mildly offended, she absolutely loves affection. She’s also not above teaming up with Samuel L. Jackson for covert snack raids, particularly when unattended kibble is involved.

Fun Fact: While she claims to be above party tricks, Dorie will give high fives—but only for hypoallergenic treats... and only if she’s in the mood.
