HAZEL - Abyssinian and Exotic Shorthair Cat for Adoption in Escalon, California

HAZEL Birthday: May 5, 2026

"A tiny Abyssinian beauty with wildcat looks and a tender heart"

Hazel is a one-of-a-kind little survivor with unforgettable round, green eyes, a warm agouti burnt-sienna ticked coat, and dramatic dark “eyeliner” markings that give her the striking look of a tiny cougar.

Beneath those wildcat looks is a gentle heart ready to be loved—she adores attention, gives the sweetest little squeaks when she wants pets, and may grab your hand to ask for more.

This loving girl prefers her feet to be on the ground but once she trusts you, she loves being held and cuddled. With patience and kindness, Hazel will continue to blossom.

Hazel was rescued from open fields where she faced coyotes, hawks, and the dangers of the outdoors. Now she is safe and ready to turn her second chance into a lifetime of companionship.

Hazel may look a little wild, but her heart is all love. Could you be the forever home this special girl has been waiting for?
