Pria You may have heard that Tortoiseshell cats are opinionated and vain. This is just not true. Yes, I am a beautiful 8-year-old lady cat with a longhaired blend of orange and black, and jade-colored eyes. But I am not conceited; I`m just honest. I was a stray 1-year-old when I was brought to the HSHC in 2018. I was soon adopted and lived with my owner for seven years before they moved and brought me back to the shelter on May 17. In this home, I was best friends with their Corgi. We played, chased each other, and relaxed together. I thought I was a dog! I was also pals with the older teenagers in the home. Here are my favorite things — playing with all kinds of balls, tennis, fabric, jingly, or bouncy. Also, I genuinely enjoy getting a massage with an electric massager. I love all flavors of Temptations cat treats. Catnip is always entertaining, but it does make me hyper! I love sitting in your lap and won`t move unless you make me leave. I gave the interviewer lady (IL) headbutts when she began rubbing my head and chin. I couldn`t help but purr from the pleasure. I even gave her nose kisses. But when she began petting me on my back, soon found out I hate to be petted past my shoulders. It freaks me out! I let her know I was ticked off at her by giving her a swat and consistently ignoring her. She was properly apologetic. The Feline Care Specialists feel it will take me quite a while to get accustomed to a new owner and home, as I do not enjoy change. Having a small space with everything I need will provide me with a safe place to slowly acclimate to your household. By the way, I have only lived with one cat, and I am not a cat fan. I look forward to hearing from those folks who love gorgeous Torties! 1-7-26

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.
