DOTTIE - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Colorado Springs, Colorado

Dottie is the biggest lovebug ever! This affectionate girl will literally climb you just to get closer and make sure she gets all the cuddles she deserves. She absolutely loves being with her people and is happiest when she’s snuggled up close.

Dottie also seems to think she’s part parrot—she loves perching on your shoulder and will happily stay there until you make her move! If you’re looking for a sweet, cuddly little shadow who wants to be right by your side, Dottie may be your girl! I am not currently at the shelter because I'm growing big and strong in a foster home! *Staff thinks I will be ready by mid October.* You can sign up to pre-adopt me by placing a $50 choice hold. This is a non-refundable fee that does not go towards my adoption fee, but it does give you the first opportunity to adopt me. Shelter staff will contact you when I’m ready to go home with my new family! To place a choice hold, you can either come into the shelter or call us at 719-302-8707; you may wait to speak with a customer service representative or leave a voicemail. Choice holds are placed on a first-come, first-serve basis and only one choice hold can be placed per animal. Once I am old enough to go home, I will have to be adopted at the shelter without a visit. Unfortunately, we aren’t able to visit while I’m in the foster home as it’s a lot of stress on me to be transported back and forth to the shelter for visits, which makes me more susceptible to getting sick. I want to be healthy for our new life together!
