Calico Cats Available for Adoption in Sautee Nacoochee, Georgia

Meet Chanel

Chanel is a gorgeous petite calico with medium length silky hair with the brightest colors. She is not in our shelter but is in a loving foster home. Chanel is described as purrrfect, except that she does not like other cats and needs to be a solo pet. She is super sweet and cuddly, very affectionate. She uses the litter box religiously, she knows what a scratching post is for, she is not destructive, and she loves to play - especially fetch with hair ties and will chase springs and toys and chasing a laser pointer. She travels very well in the car and is well behaved in a hotel room. She snuggles up at sleeping times and will let you carry her like a little baby and endures excessive kisses.

At her foster home she was given access to the screen porch, which she loves! She behaves very well behaved for small quarters. Chanel is very trusting toward people and warms up quickly. She loves a lap, likes a belly rub (without any aggression), which is a true sign of trust. Chanel is a sweet little thing and we think she would thrive in a single animal home.


Chanel has been fully vetted, spayed and microchipped by her foster family. She just needs to find her forever home without other kitties in it so she can live the life she deserves. Because she’s in foster, we will arrange for her to be brought up to our shelter for meet and greets.

If looking for an awesome kitty who will be your companion for life, Chanel might just be for you. Please fill out an application online at: www.charlessmithgallhumanesociety.org.

Adoption policies and application procedures are detailed at the shelter website: http://charlessmithgallhumanesociety.org/ under tab All Adoptable Animals. Charles Smithgall Humane Society (CSHS) is a No kill shelter. Animals in our care remain safe with us until adopted. Resident animals are either owner relinquished rescued from area Animal Controls or high kill shelters. The facility usually operates at capacity with a list of animals waiting for space to open.

The Calico cat is known for its unique tri color coat pattern of white, orange, and black. These cats are almost always female due to their genetics, with their striking coats often displaying a patchwork appearance. Calicos are not a specific breed but rather a color pattern found in various breeds, including American Shorthair and Persian. They are typically lively, affectionate, and confident felines, making them popular and charming companions in many households.

The mission of Charles Smithgall Humane Society is to shelter and find safe homes for unwanted, neglected, abandoned and abused...
