Diana’s story began with a difficult chapter, but she is more than ready to turn the page and start the happy life she deserves. When Diana first arrived, she was heavily pregnant and went to one of our wonderful, experienced fosters to safely have her kittens. Thankfully, her foster noticed something wasn’ t quite right. Diana was rushed back to TJO, where she required an emergency C-section. Sadly, her kittens were stillborn.Diana has since recovered beautifully and is now ready to leave that difficult time behind her and find a home where she can be cherished the way she deserves. Her experience is also a powerful reminder of why we are such strong advocates for spaying and neutering cats.What Diana wants most now is simple: her very own person. She is one of the most loving kitties you will ever meet. Diana’s favorite place in the world is right on her human, soaking up snuggles and companionship. She will happily curl up on your lap, chest, or beside you and keep you company as long as you’ ll let her. If you are looking for a constant companion, Diana will be overjoyed to fill that role.However, Diana has made one thing very clear—she wants to be the only pet in the home. She is ready to claim her throne as your one and only furry queen.If you love a cuddly, affectionate cat who wants to be involved in every cozy moment of your day, Diana may be the perfect match. Just be warned… if you prefer your personal space, Diana will politely disagree—because her favorite place will always be right with you. OTHER PETS: Without question must be only pet.
OWNER EXPERIENCE: We expect Diana to be easy enough for those newer to kitty guardianship
KIDS: We think Diana to be best suite for a home with older kiddos and up.
ACTIVITY LEVEL: Diana has an easy-going level of play.
VETERINARY CARE: Diana is looking forward to meeting her new vet and receiving on-going vet care.
LEVEL OF SOCIALIZATION: We expect Diana to move pretty easily into her new home.
GROOMING: Diana takes wonderful care of her beautiful black coat. Brushing is a nice bonding activity for you and your cat. March 9, 2026, 2:59 pm

Our shelter operates on a walk-in, first come, first served basis. The first step is to fill out an adoption application, answering some basic questions about yourself and your household. This will help the Animal Welfare Specialists facilitate the matchmaking process. Most adoptions take at least 45 minutes to one hour to complete. The Adoption Center is a busy place, so please be patient and allow yourself enough time for our process. THANK YOU!
What we will need to know when you adopt a new companion:
Other pets already living with you will need to be up-to-date on vaccination. This is to decrease the risk of spreading infectious disease from one animal to another.
It is important to understand that your new companion will be a member of your family. This can mean a
10-15 year commitment from you! Please bring along family members so we can make sure it will be a good match before you make a commitment. Also, if adopting a second dog, please bring your current dog with you---we can let them spend some time together and give you some suggestions on surviving the adjustment period.
Please be sure you have considered the financial obligation involved in caring for a companion animal. This includes routine veterinary and emergency care, in addition to food, supplies and training. The adoption counselors can give you an idea of basic costs involved for each type of animal.
Many animals adopted from shelters can require an immediate visit to the veterinarian. Because of the volume of un-vaccinated animals entering a shelter’s care, the risk of transmissible contagious diseases can be quite high. Kennel cough in dogs, and upper respiratory infections in cats are the two most common diseases that your newly adopted companion may experience. You must ask yourself if you have the financial means to care for your new friend, beyond the initial adoption costs.
BEFORE YOU COMMIT: Please be honest with yourself about the actual time you have to train, groom, and exercise the companion animal you have chosen. Some things to consider: Do you work long or erratic hours? Do you like outdoor activity? Who will care for your pet while you travel? Will your pet be the appropriate size when he or she is full grown? When adopting into a home with children: Are you adopting to teach your child responsibility, or are your adopting because you have a responsible child? Are your children comfortable around the animal you’ve chosen? Will YOU still remain committed to this animal when the children lose interest? Take the time now to consider these things and find the best match for your lifestyle!
We thank your for offering your home to a “pre-loved” companion. We hope he or she will be a wonderful addition to your family and your home!

More about this shelter
The Thomas J. O'Connor Animal Control and Adoption Center provides comprehensive animal control services and programs to our communities for the protection of animals, public health and safety, and the environment.
The Thomas J. O’Connor facility believes in providing a second chance to animals that are not reclaimed by an owner. Our center has a full-service adoption service, a service rarely offered through municipal animal control programs. TJO has an in-house veterinarian four days per week, responsible for shelter animal wellness and sterilization surgery. Adoptable animals are spayed or neutered, vaccinated and screened for other health concerns. Each animal is then placed into the adoption area to await a new home. Every animal is microchipped at the time of adoption.
