My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

To say that Columbia started out sugar and spice and everything nice would be a bit of a stretch. But this sassy sister has come a long way. When she was a kitten, she was sickly and constantly prodded and bothered with unwanted attention. Now she is a healthy, robust kitty and taunts you to "bring it on" ...the snuggles, that is. Columbia lives in our clinic and enjoys sleeping on our heating pad for the fluids, observing the clinic staff to make sure everyone is working hard and getting the job done, and giving us a whack if we forget her food or simply to get our attention! She loves playing with mice with long tails, she'll pick them up by the tail and sling them in the air! She has alot of energy and personality and would love to have a home of her own!

You don't have to travel to South America to meet Columbia, just fill out an application at www.abandonedpetrescue.org. Columbia was born in 2020 and her personality is Amaz-on!To meet this adoptable pet, please fill out an adoption application at www.abandonedpetrescue.org and a team member will contact you to schedule an appointment.

More about this shelter

Abandoned Pet Rescue (APR) is one of the largest no-kill animal shelters in South Florida with the mission of rescuing and sheltering abandoned and abused cats and dogs with the goal of finding them new homes. APR's adoption center has about 150 cats and 30 dogs, all of which receive nutritious meals, veterinary care, enrichment and love.

APR, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, was founded in 1996 by a group of volunteers who were trapping, spaying and neutering feral cats and quickly realized the greater need to help abandoned pets and advocate for a no-kill community. APR is funded solely by generous donors and grants.
