My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Ebony a sensitive, shy girl who needs a home that understands patience, space, and slow transitions. When she first arrives in a new environment, she may feel overwhelmed and need time to decompress, so her new adopters should be prepared to set up a cozy decompression area and give her the space she needs to adjust at her own pace.
With consistency, calm energy, and kindness, Ebony begins to feel safe and that’s when her sweet personality truly starts to shine. Once comfortable, she will seek people out for interaction and connection, but everything should always happen on her terms. Building trust with Ebony is about respect, gentleness, and letting the relationship grow naturally.
Ebony would thrive in a quiet, understanding home with people who value patience and believe in the beauty of watching a shy cat learn to trust. For the right family, she won’t just be a pet she’ll be a bond built on trust, safety, and love.
If you are interested in adopting Ebony, please visit the shelter during adoption hours.
