Story
Meet Garrett! He recently arrived at the shelter and is still settling into their new environment. They are worried, and sweet, so we’re taking it slow as we get to know them and allow them to build up confidence at their own pace. He does best when his boundaries are respected and he’s allowed to move at his own pace. Adopters should be patient and understanding as it may take Garrett a little extra time to feel comfortable in a new home.

Story
Meet Friendly! Friendly is a special type of cat we lovingly call a Spirit cat! Spirit cats are very shy and prefer to spend time out of sight. New people and environments can be overwhelming at first and adopters should expect to see very little of Friendly as they are settling in. We often can’t predict how a spirit cat will be after they settle in - some become comfortable around their family and choose to spend time with them by sharing the same space or allowing some petting, while others continue to prefer to hide when there’s any commotion. Spirit cats generally prefer to spend their time around other cats and make an excellent kitty friend to a cat already in the home. Our staff can help prepare adopters to welcome a spirit cat into a quiet home, but patience and understanding will go a long way with Friendly.
