My story

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

DOB: 6/2014

Clawdia is quite the explorer.  She is always looking up trying to figure out how to get up higher.  She's quite active for being a 2014 model.  She loves to play and is respectful of other cats in her foster home.  If they want to play with her, great.  If not, bummer but okay.

She enjoys her daily zoomies, chasing toys, and trying to befriend every kitty she meets. When she’s not playing or exploring, you’ll find her pouncing playfully on anyone who walks by or napping in her favorite cozy spot.

She’s an affectionate cuddle bug who’ll crawl into bed with you every night for snuggles and head rubs. And if you love cooking, expect a curious little shadow in the kitchen because Clawdia never misses a chance to see (or taste) what’s on the menu.

If you’re ready to open your heart to a sweet senior, Clawdia will fill your home with love, warmth, and laughter.  Clawdia has mild allergies which makes her a little snotty and eye discharge which on a white cat that really stands out.  But she is tolerant in getting her eyes cleaned.

When Clawdia had to go to a "vacation foster home" she took to her new environment immediately.  She experienced a dog in the home who deferred to her and she was purrfectly fine being around a 70 lb dog.  She is a fearless girl.

**This cat is currently in a foster home and arrangements can be made for a meeting once you have applied with us. All cats are spayed or neutered, vaccinated and tested for FIV/FeLV. If interested in adopting me, please fill out an online adoption application at https://colonycats.org/adoption_app.html to expedite the process. Due to the large number of inquiries received, we are unable to respond to emails quickly.**

Go meet their pets

The Colony Cats Adoption Center is a completely different experience in 'sheltering' homeless companion cats. While most of our felines still live in foster homes, we now can bring them out into the public with our cage free adoption center. Cats can do what comes naturally- jump, run, climb, and play; but only until they find their way into your heart and home.

We have pledged not only to make this a completely different experience for the cats, but also for the public.
While we strive to make the adoption center as beautiful as possible, the cats within our care remain our top priority. Our firm belief as an organization is that every homeless cat deserves a chance because every cat matters. We hope that you'll come by and share with us our vision.

More about this rescue

Colony Cats is an all-volunteer, 501(c)(3) non-profit organization whose primary mission is to address cat overpopulation in central Ohio through public awareness and spay/neuter efforts. Since 2002, our organization has facilitated spay or neuter of 33,000 animals.

Specialized help for feral, stray and abandoned cats is a core element of our programs. We assist compassionate caregivers who are feeding and watching over homeless cats by providing TNR (trap-neuter-return) and other support services including food, shelter, vaccines and additional vet care for injuries/illness, as well as educational resources.
We also have a network of foster homes for friendly, adoptable cats and kittens - as well as dogs and puppies that we encounter while assisting cats - that have been rescued.
