My story

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

Meet Marbles!

If you’re looking for a cat who is equal parts "gorgeous supermodel" and "tiny mischievous roommate," look no further than Marbles. This stunning 4-year-old girl arrived at Heartland from the Elkhart Humane Society this past September, and she has wasted no time making herself the center of attention!

Don't let her relaxed appearance fool you—Marbles is a girl with a plan. While she’s definitely past the frantic kitten stage, she has kept all of the curiosity which makes life with a cat so much fun. She is the kind of cat who will:
- "Inspect" your cabinets to make sure everything is in order.
- Playfully "bat" at your pen while you’re trying to work.
- Keep you laughing with her funny expressions and her knack for finding the most unlikely places to sit.

Once she’s finished her daily rounds of "redecorating" and exploring, Marbles transforms into a world-class affectionate companion. She doesn't just want to be in the same room as you; she wants to be your shadow.
- The Lap Magnet: As soon as you sit down, Marbles is there. She is a dedicated snuggle buddy who believes that a human lap is the highest form of luxury.
- Quiet Companionship: She has a wonderful way of leaning into your hand for pets and purring the stress of the day away.
- Ready for Life: At 4 years old, she is the perfect age—she’s over the "kitten crazies," but still full of spunk and life.

Marbles is looking for a home where her silly side is celebrated and her snuggles are prioritized. She would be a great fit for someone who wants a cat with a big personality but also wants a loyal friend to curl up with at the end of the night.

Staff Note: "Marbles is a Heartland favorite! She’s got a big heart and just enough mischief to keep things interesting. She’s the perfect mix of fun and 'chill.'"

Marbles is spayed, up-to-date on her FVRCP and Rabies vaccines and FIV and is FeLV negative.

Marbles is currently staying at our Heartland Facility! We are open Thursday 4pm-7pm, Friday 4pm-7pm, Saturday Noon-6pm and Sunday Noon-6pm. Feel free to stop by to meet her! No appointment necessary.
