My story

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

Shimmer is a gentle little soul with a sprinkle of silly charm. She’s not a fan of being picked up (a girl has her boundaries!), but she shows her affection in her own adorable ways.



Every morning, Shimmer wakes up ready for action. She zooms around like she’s training for the Cat Olympics, chasing after her favorite toys — especially balls and coil springs. She loves them so much she carries them from room to room, as if she’s giving you a guided tour of her treasures. And her stuffed mice? Those are her absolute pride and joy.



Once Shimmer gets comfortable, her loving side comes out in full force. She’ll quietly follow you around the house like a tiny, furry shadow, keeping you company without making a fuss. At night, she’ll curl up right beside you in the sweetest little ball, letting you know she trusts you completely.



Shimmer is a mix of gentle sweetness and playful silliness — a cat who won’t demand attention but will give you her whole heart once she feels at home. She’s looking for someone who will love her quirks, respect her space, and enjoy all the joy she brings to everyday life

More about this shelter

Standish Humane Society is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization dedicated to assisting our local community with low cost spay and neuters to reduce the overpopulation of felines on the South Shore of MA. We actively trap, neuter, feed and assess feral community cat colonies to further reduce the overpopulation and suffering of outdoor kitties. We rehome adoptable cats and kittens to safe loving forever homes and whenever possible we transport cats and kittens from high kill shelters to areas within our own geography looking for pets. We promise to rescue, rehabilitate and rehome adoptable felines. We hope to ensure healthy domesticated pets and community cats through both education and affordable spay and neuter services, and inspire a community in which all felines, feral and friendly are understood and cared for.
