Squash is a shy, chubby sweetheart who believes personal space is very important—especially when it comes to other animals. She’s not a fan of dogs and can be unsure about other cats, letting them know with a growl or hiss if they get too close. If they respect her space, though, she’s perfectly content to coexist.
With people, it’s a whole different story. Once she feels safe, Squash loves cuddles and gentle affection and will happily soak up all the love you’re willing to give.
She’d do best in a calm home, ideally without dogs, and with someone who understands her boundaries and appreciates a cuddly cat who just needs a little time to warm up.
I am spayed, microchipped and fully vaccinated.

Over 1,100 animals pass through our doors every year. Did you know that the average cost to get our animals ready to be adoptable is roughly $350 per animal? That is because we require our adoptables to be spayed/neutered and fully vaccinated before adopting out.
Population control and disease management are issues in our community that we are working hard to resolve. Your donations help ensure we can continue our mission.
We have an amazing team of hard working staff caring for our animals 7 days a week. They are supported by a group of engaged board members that are focused on bettering our organization.
