Stella I was a 2-month-old stray kitten when I first came to the HSHC. I am now 6-years-old and have lived with two different owners. I want you to know that I LOVE adults & teens. I used to sleep with my owners! I am a friendly, outgoing girl, but I liked being home alone, with no commotion to disturb my naps. When little kids arrived, they made a lot of noise and disrupted the routine. I prefer a calm, predictable environment. When the interviewer lady came to my little room, I quickly went to her for some attention. I love being petted, scratched, and stroked! I am an affectionate girl as long as little children are not around. Although I have had litter box avoidance incidents, I never had problems with the litterbox in my foster home. I readily used various litter types at various height levels. If you give me a small space of my own, with everything I need in one place, I will feel much better about moving in with you. Let me settle in for a few weeks before giving me free rein of the house. I have enjoyed the company of a dog, but I have never lived with other cats (until arriving back at the shelter). Because I have been at the HSHC three times, you must meet with me more than once to ensure it is a match made in heaven. I am eager for a fresh start, so hurry up! 1-29-24

With an open admission policy, a No-Kill philosophy, and more than 3,100 animals crossing our threshold each year, we have still maintained a 98% placement rate over the last 3 years.
This is an amazing feat for any organization…let alone one that takes in some of the most abused, injured and seriously ill animals imaginable.
