Hilda

American Shorthair

Female, 7 yrs 2 mos

Waynesboro, PA

Size

(when grown) -

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Say hello to Hilda! This pretty old lady came to us in October of 2025 due to the current pet in the home not accepting her. She is quite the shy girl, preferring to nap away on the top shelf of her kennel — until a tasty treat is offered, that is! Food is the quickest way to her heart, especially in the form of a lickable treat or wet food. Once she warms up to you, Hilda is a sweetheart who likes to cuddle and absolutely loves a good head scratch! She can be fairly vocal about things she likes (and doesn't like) and certainly demands the pampered life she deserves. We have not seen much playful behavior from Hilda, but we suspect she likes to play when no one's watching as her toys are always moved around. In her previous home, it became evident that Hilda prefers a chill life. She'd do best as the only cat in the home or with a male cat companion. We have not seen her with dogs. Hilda is great with respectful, calm children but fearful of younger and louder children. Hilda is spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped.
