Story
Hi, I’m Old Spice. I might come off a little shy at first new places and new people can be a bit overwhelming for me. But if you give me a little time and patience, you’ll start to see my softer, sweeter side come out. I’m the kind of cat who enjoys a calm, quiet space where I can feel safe and go at my own pace. Once I’m comfortable, I like to hang nearby and keep you company in my own gentle way. If you have a peaceful home and a kind heart, I think we could be a really good match. I just need someone willing to take things slow with me, I promise I’m worth it.

Story
Hi, I'm Bella. I'm a little shy when we first meet, so please be patient with me. New people, loud noises, and unfamiliar places can make me nervous, and I might need some extra time to feel safe. But once I know you're kind, my sweet side starts to shine. I love gentle pets, cozy naps, and quiet moments with the people I trust. I'll never be the loudest cat in the room, but I'll be the one softly purring beside you, keeping you company. Nothing makes me happier than finding a warm lap or curling up nearby while you relax. If you're looking for a loving friend with a tender heart, I just might be your perfect match. Give me a little time, and I'll show you how much love is hiding behind my timid whiskers.

Hi, I'm Eric! I may be a little shy when we first meet, but give me some time and patience, and you'll see my sweet side shine through. New people and places can make me a bit nervous, so I like to take things at my own pace. Once I feel safe and comfortable, though, I'm all about the cuddles! When I've decided you're one of my favorite humans, I'll happily curl up beside you and soak up all the love and attention you have to give. There's nothing better than a cozy spot and some quality snuggle time with someone I trust. If you're looking for a gentle companion who's worth the wait, I might be the perfect match for you. All I need is a little patience, and I'll reward you with lots of affection and loyal friendship. Could you be the one to help me come out of my shell?

Story
I am currently at the Indianapolis Zoo participating in their 2026 ZooBoo! My adoption will be first come first serve but my adoption cannot be finalized until November 2026. The Indy Humane team will reach out to all applicants as soon as we are back at the shelter! Adoption Link: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/INDY/cat I sure am cute, but I’m a ball of energy and natural instincts! I need to get my energy out and will want to perch up high, cuddle, scratch on a post, and would love a window with a view. Kittens will naturally pounce, wrestle, and play rough. But if you stick with me, we’ll be best friends forever!

Needs special attention, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Hi, I'm Mimi! I'm a friendly girl who's ready to find a loving family to call my own! Right now, I'm being treated for FIP, so I'll go home as a Foster-to-Adopt while I finish my treatment. The shelter will provide my medical care, and my treatment is expected to be complete in October. In the meantime, all I need is a cozy place, lots of love, and someone who's willing to cheer me on as I continue to get stronger. I can't wait to start my new chapter with you!

Story
Hi, I'm Lady! I'm a sweet senior girl looking for a calm, loving home where I can enjoy all the comforts of the good life. I may be older, but I still have so much love to give and plenty of cozy cuddles left to share. My favorite things are soft beds, gentle affection, and spending quiet time with my people. I do have chronic diarrhea, so I'll need a family that's understanding and willing to help me manage my condition. Despite that, I'm a happy girl who is ready to trade shelter life for a peaceful home filled with love. I'm hoping to find a family who will cherish me through my golden years and give me the comfort and care I deserve. In return, I'll provide endless companionship, gentle purrs, and lots of love. Lady's adoption fee is waived thanks to Hensley Legal.
