American Shorthair Cats Available for Adoption in North Kingstown, Rhode Island

Meet Ivy! 🐾🐾😻

Ivy has been in foster care for about a month now, we believe fostering truly works. It gives anxious and fearful cats the time and space they need to decompress, build confidence, and learn to trust again.

Before going into foster, Ivy was what we would call unpredictable—quick to swipe and not a fan of human touch. She was scared, unsure, and just didn’t know if she could trust people.

But, with patience, love, and understanding from her incredible foster mom, Ivy is learning that affection isn’t so scary after all. She’s allowing pets, enjoying attention, and showing her true personality. 💕

Her foster mom tells us, Ivy is a fun, playful girl—with just a little sass still mixed in. She may sneak in an ankle grab when the mood strikes 😸, so keeping those nails trimmed is a must!
Ivy is 3 years old, spayed, and up to date on all her vetting. She’s ready to find a home that understands her journey and will continue to help her blossom.

If you are interested in meeting Ivy, please go to our website, www.thepetrefuge.org to fill out our application and after approval, we will schedule a meet and greet.
