This helps San Diego Humane Society - Oceanside Campus (Cats and Small Animals) with pet care costs.
How this pet arrived:
Heather Grey was brought in by her previous owner on January 10, 2026.
Why this pet is the one for you:
Heather Grey is a lovely feline looking for just the right match-someone who appreciates the quiet art of winning a shy cat's heart. With a history of being fearful around new people, she's the type who prefers to observe from a safe distance. Because of her sensitive nature and tendency to hide when overwhelmed, Heather Grey should go to a dog‑free home and will need an extended confinement period at first so her new family can monitor her eating, litter box habits, and whereabouts. Her ideal setup includes a calm, low‑traffic household with cozy hiding spots and elevated perches where she can feel secure while she acclimates. Building trust with Heather Grey is a marathon, not a sprint-her adopters should avoid forcing interactions and instead offer gentle slow blinks, quiet companionship, tasty food, and treats as invitations for connection. With time and patience, she'll reveal her sweet and steady charm. If you are ready to bring this soft‑spoken girl home, don't forget a large, hard‑sided plastic carrier to ensure a safe and stress‑free ride.
