Story
DOB 12/10/25 Oakley is a beautiful tabby girl with a gentle spirit and the softest, sweetest heart. This lovely lady is on the shy side and is still learning that the world can be a safe and loving place. She’s looking for a patient adopter who will give her the time and reassurance she needs to continue building her confidence. While Oakley may be a little reserved at first, there is something truly special about earning her trust. When she’s gently held and comforted, she melts into you and settles so sweetly, soaking up the security and warmth. It’s in those quiet moments that her tender personality really shines. Oakley would do best in a calm home where she can blossom at her own pace. With kindness, patience, and a little encouragement, she will grow into a devoted companion who treasures her person deeply.   - Spayed/neutered - Microchipped with lifetime registration - Combo tested for FIV/FeLV - Treated for internal parasites - Up-to-date on flea prevention and age-appropriate vaccines - Socialized in loving foster homes ##2671326##
