Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Candler, North Carolina

Flower Power is a stunning calico with a perfectly adorable black nose and a personality to match. From the moment she arrived in her foster home, she carried her tail high—a true sign of her natural confidence and curiosity. This lovely girl enjoys the finer things in life, especially lounging atop a high perch on her cat tree where she can quietly “supervise” her surroundings like the queen she is. While she genuinely enjoys being near her people and seeks out their company, she also has an independent streak. She’s happy to share space with you without needing to be the center of attention every moment. She isn’t a lap cat at this stage, but with time, trust and a strong bond, that could certainly evolve. Flower Power would do best in a home where she can be the star or where introductions to other cats are handled very slowly and thoughtfully. She’s a confident, observant and quietly affectionate girl who will truly flourish in a calm, loving environment. And if you’re looking to win her heart, wet food is definitely the way to do it! If you’re searching for a beautiful, self-assured companion with a regal presence and a gentle appreciation for her humans, Flower Power may be your perfect match.Be the first to meet Flower Power by applying to adopt or visit her during our weekly cat adoption event from 12-4pm at PetSmart, Bleachery Blvd. All cats are spayed/neutered, up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccines, FELV/FIV tested, micrcochipped, dewormed and started on monthly flea preventative.

Please note that visual breed identification of companion animals has been proven to be unreliable, so for most of our animals we provide a best guess at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each of our animals as an individual and do our best to describe and place pets based on personality not breed label.
