Dilute Tortoiseshell Cats Available for Adoption in Grand Rapids, Michigan

Meet Nellie, a lovely dilute sortie with sparkly mint green eyes was found abandoned near a trailer park. She had no microchip and no one looking for her. She was scooped up and made ready for adoption with second Chance.

Nellie is a very sweet and loving cat, eager to sit on your lap and bump her head into you continuously for pets. Her fur is soft, plush, and beautiful which will entice you even more to pet her. Nellie is also okay with being held. Nellie enjoys people and seems to be fine with other non-aggressive, friendly kitties. Large spaces scare her initially so currently she is in foster care doing beautifully.

Nellie loves to play and is a fiend for wet food. Nellie would be great for a single adopter or couple who are interested in having a couch and play buddy. Nellie would likely do okay with a family, with older respectful children. She'll need a small space at first to acclimate but once she feels safe she will blossom.

With an approved application, a visit can be arranged for you to meet Nellie at her foster home.

Nellie has been spayed, vaccinated and microchipped. Nellie has an approximate birthdate of 04/02/2022. Her adoption fee is $95.

If you are interested in Nellie or any of the cats at Second Chance Cats of West Michigan, go to sccatswm.org/adopt to fill out an application, or stop in during open hours on Fridays from 11-2 or Saturdays and Sundays from 11-4.

Please note - we can only adopt to those who live within a one hour drive of Grand Rapids.

Thank you!
