My story

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

DipStick is a bright‑eyed, endlessly chatty two‑year‑old cat with a personality big enough to fill any room he strolls into. Having spent most of his young life outdoors, he’s grown into a confident, savvy explorer who’s just as comfortable lounging inside as he is patrolling the yard. That balance makes him the perfect indoor‑outdoor companion.

His name comes from the tiny white tip on his tail—a little “dip” of color that stands out like a badge of honor. And trust him, he wears it proudly. Whether he’s telling you all about his day, chirping at birds, or curling up for a well‑earned nap, DipStick brings joy, energy, and a whole lot of conversation wherever he goes.


DipStick's adoption fee is $45, which helps support their medical care and preparation for adoption. If you are interested in meeting any of our animals, we encourage you to first visit our website and submit an adoption application: https://www.acskc.org/adopt-1

Once your adoption application has been approved, we will call you to set up an appointment to meet with the pet! We welcome adopters from out of state to apply!
