Calliope - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Houston, Texas

My name is Calliope, and I'm a beautiful brown torby (that's a tabby-tortie!) with a loving personality to match. I'm a sweet, affectionate girl who truly enjoys being around my people-I'm always happy to soak up pets and spend time close by.

I've been settling into my foster home and have shown that I'm a relaxed and easygoing companion. I'm perfectly content lounging on soft, cozy spots and would love a home where I can enjoy comfort and companionship. I've met other cats and a small dog and handled it all like a lady, so with proper introductions, I should do just fine with other pets. I am FIV+ but I have gotten along with every cat I have met in the rescue so I am low risk to other cats (FIV is passed by deep bite wounds).

After spending time in a rural shelter, I'm more than ready to trade kennels for couches and quiet moments with my favorite humans. If you're looking for a gentle, affectionate companion to share your space and your downtime, I might be your perfect match. Apply to adopt me today-I can't wait to meet you!
