Hi, my name is Star! I came to the shelter as a terrified mama cat with my tiny kittens, and shelter staff thought I was feral. But in my time in foster, I have blossomed into a sweet and lovable cat who purrs happily when she gets pets and attention. I am still very timid, though, so I would do best in a quiet home with an owner who will work to bring me out of my shell. I would love a home with another friendly cat (I tried really hard to make friends with my foster’s cat, but she didn’t want to). I am sweet and gentle, even when I am scared. I love pets and am starting to show my playful side, though I am very cautious and still unsure about people picking me up. If you give me a chance, I can be your most loving and loyal companion!

Find the pet for you at the Adoption Center:
Angels of Assisi’s adoption center is open from 12-6pm, 7 days a week. Adoption Specialists and Volunteer Ambassadors are eager to help you find the pet that would fit best in your family.
Adoptable Pets in Foster Homes:
Some of our available pets are currently in foster homes. If an animal is currently in a foster home, it is noted in the animal's biography online.

Found the perfect addition to your family? Now what?
The next step is to fill out an adoption application. You can complete and application online (preferred) or stop by the adoption center to fill out a paper application. Adopters must be 18 years of age or older. If you rent your home, we will need to contact your landlord or see a copy of your lease to verify the pet policy. Most applications can be approved within 24-48 hours.

After paying the adoption fee and pending the approval of your application, you may take your new pet home immediately. Adoption fees may vary and can be found on our website at:
