Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Yakima, Washington

Meet Lucella, a six-and-a-half-year-old Domestic Shorthair cat.

Lucella is a stunning "mini panther" with a heart to match her sleek, all-black coat. She was found a couple of months ago by kind-hearted people who kept her safe, but sadly weren’t able to keep her long-term. Now she’s ready to find a forever home of her own.

This beautiful girl is on the bigger side at around 11 pounds, giving her that regal, panther-like presence. While she can be a little shy at first, Lucella absolutely melts for gentle cheek rubs and quickly shows her sweet, mellow nature once she feels comfortable.

Lucella would be perfect for someone looking for a calm, loving companion with a quiet charm. If you’ve ever dreamed of having your very own mini black panther to share your home (and your couch), Lucella might just be your girl
