Meet Amelia Earhart
Amelia Earhart is a 1-year-old sweetheart who endured a very cold start to life. She lost both of her ear tips to frostbite while trying to survive outdoors, and while her ears tell part of her story, they do not define her.
Amelia is incredibly friendly with people and has a soft, gentle personality. She loves to lounge in a cozy chair, soak up warmth, and simply relax near her humans. After everything she has been through, comfort is her favorite thing.
She would do well in a home with calm animals and proper introductions. Amelia is not looking for chaos, just a peaceful place to rest, feel safe, and finally stay warm forever.
She has already survived the hardest part. Now she is ready for the easy, loving life she deserves.

4. You will be notified of the outcome of your application within 1-3 days.
5. If approved, you will be introduced to the foster to schedule a meeting within 5 days. Guidelines for the meeting are:
- Bring a carrier and be prepared to take the animal home directly from the meeting.
- Please be prepared to submit the adoption fee via electronic payment at the meeting.
- If all goes well, the cat will go home with you directly after the meeting. If you are not ready to adopt at the conclusion of the meeting, please understand that we may process other applications for the cat. Because we have a limited number of foster homes, we cannot hold cats past adoption.
6. Please review these resources prior to the meeting to be prepared with what to expect when bringing a new cat home:
