My story

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

My foster writes: Litchi is a sweet and gentle cat who adores human company. She might seem a little shy at first, but within moments she'll be purring and asking for cuddles. Her favorite things include face rubs, naps in sunny spots, and showing off her belly when she's happy. Litchi would be the perfect companion for anyone looking for a calm, affectionate friend.

What my friends at ACC say about me:


I would appreciate slow introductions to new people and places to help me feel safe.


I have medical needs that staff will address with you when you meet me.


Litchi appreciates attention and petting but appears to be moderately fearful or stressed at times in the shelter. She will likely need time to warm up to her new home. We recommend that she go to a home with some cat experience preferred or at least be well counseled in fearful cat behavior. Due to the behavior shown, she may not be a great fit for young children. Any home with older children prepared to adopt this cat should conduct a thorough interaction and endeavor to monitor this cat around their children to prevent these behaviors from being reinforced.


I am a sweet, social, older gal, looking for the perfect forever home!


Cheek and chin scratches make me so happy!


I have been known to shower my favorite people in love!


My purr motor is always running!


Need some biscuits for your breakfast? I'm an expert kneader!


I am a cat that is in need of a lap! I can't wait to be your new lap cat.


I am finding the shelter a little overwhelming, but when it's just you and me and some peace and quiet you'll see what a love bug I am.


I will flourish in a calm environment and a low-traffic home.


I would do best in a home without very tiny humans, although I could be open to older human children once I meet them.
