Meet

Colleen
-
a laid-back little supervisor with a heart full of love and just enough sass to keep life interesting. This gorgeous torbi/calico beauty, complete with bright orange splashes, is equal parts independent companion and affectionate lap cat. At just one year old, Colleen has already mastered the art of balancing cozy relaxation with playful bursts of energy.

Most days, you’ll find her perched proudly on a cat tree or curled up nearby, quietly overseeing household activities like the tiny manager she believes herself to be. She loves following her humans from room to room, keeping them company while offering commentary in the form of adorable chirps, trills, and chatty little conversations. When Colleen decides it’s cuddle time, she’ll happily settle into your lap and let you know exactly when she’s ready for attention.

Though she’s mostly low-energy, Colleen definitely has a playful streak. Feather wands, catnip toys, and laser pointers can instantly bring out her silly side, sending her into enthusiastic zoomies when the mood strikes. She’s also highly food motivated and never misses an opportunity to be first at the food dish - especially if wet food or treats are involved.

Colleen has adjusted wonderfully to life with other cats and has been friendly and confident with visitors, making her an easygoing companion for many types of homes. She’s the kind of cat who settles in quickly, finds her favorite cozy spot, and becomes part of the family in no time.

If you’re looking for a sweet, curious companion who will keep you company, supervise your daily routine, and occasionally demand cuddles with adorable trills, Colleen may be your perfect match.

Prior to adoption, all canines and felines are spayed or neutered, have received their age appropriate vaccinations, have been de-wormed for common parasites, and have received treatment for prevention of fleas and ticks. All canines over the age of 6 months have been tested for heartworm. All canines are put on heartworm prevention as soon as possible - this means dogs as soon as they are tested negative. Puppies are put on prevention immediately. All felines, regardless of age, have been tested for Feline Leukemia/FIV. Each animal receives a health check by a licensed veterinarian prior to adoption. Anything else found will be treated by our organization prior to adoption.
