Story
Hello this is Bella. She’s about 4 years old. Got her in 2021. I have had her since she was a few weeks old. Unfortunately my new born is allergic so we must rehome her. She’s quiet, somewhat of a ninja lol. She loves to cuddle and be rubbed. She has had 5 litters within our time together with our male cat. She is strictly indoor! She has never been outside besides being brought home. She is house trained. Bella is small but long! Her favorite food is MeowMix Tender Centers or wet food mixed with the dry food. She’s only had one owner (me) so I’m hoping she can be with someone who plans to keep a cat for the long run. She has never had any health issues in my care. She recently gave birth 5th litter) so I’d love to see her gain some weight! She may be spayed by the time she gets adopted depending how soon we find a home. We hope to have some communication on how she’s doing once in a blue if the adoptee is up for that. I feel she would be good with someone older and not too busy.

Story
Meet Cali! A serene nine-year-old Domestic Short Hair currently living in Glenside, PA, who carries the quiet grace of a gentle protector wrapped in a soft, tabby coat. Born in July 2016, this medium-sized senior sweetheart is all about calm companionship, heartfelt purrs, and soaking in the peaceful moments of life. Cali has always been the steady one among her sisters, the watchful guardian who takes her role seriously. She may not be the first to demand attention, but when you offer a soft pet or a cozy spot to sit beside you, her affectionate side comes through in warm purrs and soulful eyes. She's incredibly low-maintenance, enjoys a peaceful routine, and would thrive in a loving home where quiet time is just as valued as companionship. This lovely girl starts her day with a splash of milk (she’ll be waiting!) and appreciates her two cans of food daily. Dry food and fresh water are always available, of course, but Cali’s favorite thing might just be curling up with someone who makes her feel safe. While her days of leaping after feather wands are mostly behind her, she still appreciates a toy with a bell and the occasional sunbeam for napping. Cali is spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped. She’s had some dental care including the removal of a couple of back teeth, but she’s in good health and simply needs a calm, caring home to enjoy her golden years. Her caregiver is willing to assist with veterinary expenses and will send her along with a stash of her favorite canned food. Cali would thrive in a tranquil environment with a compassionate pet parent ready to give her the security and affection she needs. And while she’s ready to find her own loving home, she’d be overjoyed if you’d consider adopting her along with her bonded sisters, Avery and Lexi, they've spent a lifetime together and she'd be happiest with them by her side! Could Cali be the peaceful companion your heart's been missing? Reach out to adopt@joyfulpets.com to learn more about welcoming Cali home!

Story
Meet Avery, Cali, and Lexi! A devoted trio of nine-year-old Domestic Short Hair sisters currently living in Glenside, PA, whose calm affection and gentle spirits have been woven together since kittenhood in July 2016. These lovely tabby ladies are the very definition of lifelong friendship. Avery is the conversationalist of the group, she’ll meow softly for her morning milk or a little extra love. Cali is the quiet guardian, always nearby and ready with a reassuring purr during cuddle time. Lexi is a tender soul who may need a little more time to feel safe, but once she does, her affection runs deep and true. Though they’re now enjoying their golden years, the sisters still indulge in lighthearted games, especially when bells or spotlight toys are involved! They sleep curled up together like a purring puzzle of warmth and comfort, often in a cozy pile that makes your heart melt. Their mornings begin with a shared sip of milk, and they enjoy two cans of food a day with plenty of dry food and fresh water always available. Each cat has been spayed, microchipped, and vaccinated. While they’ve had a few dental procedures (a couple of back teeth removed), they’re otherwise in great health and simply need regular senior cat care. Their current caregiver is kindly offering help with veterinary expenses and would love to keep in touch if possible, though that’s completely negotiable depending on what works best for their new family. These sisters are bonded through and through, so a home that welcomes all three together is a must! They’re timid at first with other cats, respectful around dogs, and friendly with children, making them compatible with many types of families. As long as it’s a quiet, loving environment where they can grow old side-by-side. Can you imagine the joy of having three lifelong friends gently purring their way into your heart and home? Reach out to adopt@joyfulpets.com to learn more about Avery, Cali, and Lexi!
