My story

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

Valencia is an absolutely stunning 2½-year-old calico longhair with a luxurious, Maine Coon–like mane and extra fluff to match. She is deeply bonded to her sister, St. Lawrence, and the two must be adopted together.

Valencia’s early life was unique and challenging, which made her understandably cautious around people and unfamiliar noises. During her two years in foster care, however, she made incredible progress-blossoming into a sweet little love bug and a devoted protector to her sister. St. Lawrence is her comfort and her constant, and Valencia takes her role as best friend and guardian very lovingly and seriously.

Since arriving at the SPCA, Valencia has become more reserved again as she adjusts to her new surroundings. While she’s currently shy and skeptical, we know that with patience, consistency, and a calm environment, her beautiful personality will shine through once more.

Valencia would thrive best in a quiet, spacious home without dogs, other cats, or children—an environment where she can feel safe, secure, and truly at ease. A large home with plenty of room to explore and claim as her own would be ideal.

When you visit, you’ll likely find Valencia cuddled up with St. Lawrence in their favorite spot—curled together at the bottom of their beloved cat tree, usually on their red blanket. Gentle voices, slow movements, and allowing Valencia to approach on her own terms will go a long way in earning her trust.

We truly believe that Valencia and St. Lawrence will flourish together in a peaceful, loving home where they can feel safe and cherished.

Valencia is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on her vaccinations. She can be met daily at the shelter between 12–6 p.m. For more information, please email adoptions@caspca.org

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We ask potential adopters to fill out a matchmaker form. When they are ready to adopt an animal and the form and interview process indicates a good match, we have the adopter sign an adoption contract promising that the animal will receive good physical and emotional care. Fees vary and we often have adoption specials. Fees for senior pets are sponsored. Otherwise, dogs are $100, puppies $150 and up, cats are $75, kittens are $95.
