My story

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

Hello! My name is Fish. I am majestic and grey. I am large sized and I take up space. I am a bit particular about how you pet me and once you and I sync up we will adore our petting sessions. I don't like to be picked up but will tolerate it for short periods of time. Mostly you can just say what you want me to do and I'll do it. I'm probably the smartest cat you'll ever meet. I do seek love and affection; I just like it to be on my terms. I am a fastie, physically strong, and active. I love to play and horse around. I like to sit on high spots and watch everything that is going on around me. I love my littermate Bubby and would love us in our next home together. It's not a deal breaker but she's a little timid and would do well to have me by her side in our next home. I love sitting close to you and when you rub my cheeks I'm putty in your hands. I am confident, intelligent, and sweet. I take care of those around me. I am looking forward to meeting you! Love, Fish

Additional adoption info

We ask for home photos from adopters coming from a distance (home visit). We adopt locally and to out of staters. We aren't currently part of a transport system so applicants need to come to Desert Haven Animal Rescue (Truth or Consequences, NM) to meet their pet. We can schedule meetings flexibly, any day of the week, including weekends.
