Ophelia's Info...

Breed: Domestic Shorthair Color: Calico Or Dilute Calico Age: Young
Sex: Female Hair: Short
Ophelia's Story...
Little Ophelia began life as a stray, scrounging for scraps on the campus of SLU. Now she is tame, loving, and ready for a forever home. Ophelia is a typical kitten, always on the go and ready to play. She enjoys playing with the resident cat in her foster home, and would do well with another feline buddy. She is still a little shy at times from her feral days, and can startle easily, so would probably do best in a home without very young children.

Ophelia is small for her age, and will probably be a dainty little lady as an adult as well. She eats both wet and dry food, and has perfect litter box manners. Don't you need a companion to entertain you with kitten antics, and then curl up on your lap with a motorboat purr afterward? If so, this is the girl for you!

About Our Rescue Group...
Tenth Life is an animal welfare organization that provides another chance at life to injured and abused stray cats. Our focus is on felines with extreme medical needs or ongoing conditions that make it difficult for typical shelters to afford their care.

Stage one of our mission is getting needy cats off the streets of St. Louis and into caring Foster Homes, where they await their forever homes. Stage two´s goal is to open a shelter building that will house special-needs kitties in a cage-free, no-kill setting until they can be carefully placed in their forever homes.

Why Adoption is a Great Option

Ophelia, a St. Louis Domestic Shorthair cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in St. Louis, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair cat from a breeder in St. Louis.

  1. Rescues and shelter volunteers in St. Louis already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
  2. On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a St. Louis breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
  3. You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Shorthair breeders who help with Domestic Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in St. Louis paves the way for another one to be saved.
