Domestic Short Hair and American Shorthair Cats Available for Adoption in Houston, Texas

Eevee is a sweetheart who was adopted as a kitten but recently returned to the rescue as an adult. She's a little shy at first but once she knows you she's not afraid to let you know when she wants pets. She has a fondness for damp hair to nuzzle; she likes to sit at the top of the back of a recliner and nuzzle right after her humans have taken showers. She's not sure about close cuddles or being picked up, but she'll take chin scratches and pets all day long! Eevee is big on routines and will find the same places and the same times to get your attention. She loves having a window to look out of and some sunshine to lay in. She'll make the perfect pet for a one-cat home (her history tells us she may do best as an only cat)!
