Domestic Short Hair and Tabby Cats Available for Adoption

Some cats demand attention with loud meows, but Mara wins you over with her heart. She is a "soul cat"—the kind of girl who forms a deep, lasting bond with her people. Mara is very sweet and thrives on gentle affection; she'll melt into your touch the moment you start scratching behind her ears. Mara is looking for a "forever partner." She's low-maintenance but high-reward, offering a steady stream of purrs and head-butts to anyone lucky enough to be in her inner circle.

If you're interested in adopting me, fill out an adoption application online at www.polkcountyhumanesociety.org/adopt where you will also find a link to request an appointment to meet me. Some pets are in foster homes or may already have an appointment scheduled, so the appointment is important to make sure I will be available to meet you when you come.
