Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi! I’m Aponi — a sleek little black cat with a pretty special name. Aponi means “butterfly” in the Blackfoot language, and I like to think that fits me perfectly. Butterflies are all about hope and transformation… and that’s kind of my story too.
I used to be a stray, so sometimes I start out a little shy. New places and new people can make me pause for a moment while I figure things out. But don’t worry — I’m not hiding forever, I’m just doing a little Aponi investigation.
Here’s the fun part: once I decide you’re safe, I turn into a full-blown cuddle bug. Yep, the shy little butterfly suddenly becomes a snuggly shadow who wants pets, love, and a comfy spot near her person.
Think of me like a butterfly coming out of her cocoon. At first you might only see a little peek of me… but with a little patience, I spread my wings and show you just how sweet and affectionate I can be.
So if you’ve got a little patience and a lot of love, I promise I’ll turn into the cuddly companion you’ve been waiting for.
Love, Aponi 🦋🐾An adoption application can be filled out on the DHS website https://www.dekalbhumanesociety.org/adopt. Dog adoption fees are $200.00 for all puppies and adult dogs. Seniors are a donation of choice. Cats and kittens are minimum donation $50.00
