Sassy is a hoarding house survivor! In September 2021, we removed over 90 cats from one local home. Sadly, most of the cats came to us shut down. Sassy is currently enjoying life in one of our catteries. She is treat motivated, likes to be pet after slow intros, she's curious yet shy, and thrives around other furry felines. With all she endured, she slowly continues to blossom into her true personality, she reminds us, there is always room to love and to trust again. Sassy is independent, shy when first meeting strangers, doesn't like to be picked up (who can blame her!) and absolutely** must go to a home with another socialized cat. She will shut down if she doesn't have a feline companion to continue help her learn. She has made so much progress we just hope she has the opportunity to see life in a home, around a forever family!! If you decide to open your heart and home, please consider Sassy and one of her cattery friends! Please contact our placement departments if you are interested: T: 516.785.5220 E: adoption@hempsteadny.gov E: foster@hempsteadny.gov E: rescue@hempsteadny.gov
