HOW TO ADOPT: This cat is participating in our Shelter Cat Getaway foster program, which gives cats a vacation from the shelter and lets them enjoy home life while they wait to be adopted.

- Sweet, sensitive girl who will accept lots of pets, once she is comfortable with you
- May do well with another young cat to play with, but will be just as happy as your only cat
- Is so funny when she gets the zoomies and runs through the house!
- Looking for a home with patient family members who will give her time to open up and let her take things at her own pace
- Children are not a good fit for her, so she is looking for a more mature family members
- Has a lot of love to give and will be a wonderful companion for a quiet person or two who will allow her time to settle into her new home. It took several weeks for her to become comfortable with her foster family, so plan on giving her a few weeks in her new home, too. She is worth the wait!
- Will be a wonderful friend for a calm, patient person who loves the quiet life just like she does
This cat can be fearful and may need extra time to adjust to a new home. We've seen good progress here at the ARL, but don't be surprised if it takes several weeks for this cat to become comfortable in a new place. This cat may hide and just observe at first - maybe for quite a while - and that is perfectly normal. Young children are too much for this cat right now, so we are highly recommending a quiet, mature home. We are happy to provide post-adoption resources. If you can give this cat extra time, patience and TLC, please consider adopting! It will be so rewarding to watch them gain confidence and start enjoying all the good things in life!
All adoptable cats and kittens are spayed/neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccinations (rabies and FVRCP as appropriate for their age)
