Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption

Hi, my name is Chia! I'm a PURPLE pawprint, which means I will fit well into a home that meets some specific criteria. Here is what would work best for me in my new home:

-Personality: Independent, confident, chill
-Can Live with Cats: Unknown history, may be OK with slow and supervised introductions (has lived with her own kitten before)
-Can Live with Dogs: Unknown history, likely OK with slow and supervised introductions and space to get away
-Can Live with Kids: Likely OK with kids 10+, up to counselor's discretion
-Needs Indoor Only Home: Yes, has only lived indoors
-History of Litter Box Issues: No
-Energy Level: Medium
-Bite History: No
-Needs Medical Procedure Before Going Home: Yes, a spay and microchip

Chia is a sweet and independent adult cat looking for her forever home. She was surrendered with her kitten "Sesame" when her previous family developed allergies. She is pretty easy-going cat who wants her boundaries respected, but isn't too terribly particular. She mostly loves exploring new spaces and looking out the window. She can go home with her kitten or alone!

If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application on our website (www.whatcomhumane.org/adopt) or in person at our facility. We recommend calling into the shelter after your application has been submitted so our front desk can give you next steps on our adoption process.
