My story

Nellie is a friendly, playful, and outgoing girl who came to us as a stray. She spent some time in a foster home but did not get along with the other cats or dogs who lived there so was returned. Nellie needs to be your one and only furry friend.

Why adoption is a great option

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

  1. Rescues and shelter volunteers in Norwalk 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 Norwalk 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 Mediumhair breeders who help with Domestic Mediumhair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Norwalk paves the way for another one to be saved.
