Tabby and Torbie Cats Available for Adoption in Marietta, Ohio

Taylor (aka Lily Anne) is a beautiful 3-year 9-month old female kitty who was surrendered by her owner on February 5, 2026 because she was moving to an assisted-living residence and was unable to take Taylor to the new location.

Taylor has a dark brown tabby shorthaired coat with orange highlights in a Torbie pattern, a long ringed tail, and an adorable chubby face with golden eyes, a brown velvet nose, a splash of white on her muzzle, and long white whiskers.

This little sweetheart has a super-sweet, outgoing personality. Her mistress told us that Taylor is good with other cats and also with children. There weren't any dogs in the home, so we don't know how Taylor feels about canine friends. Taylor's previous owner indicated that she has been known to be a 'door dasher'.

Taylor may look familiar to some of our HSOV Volunteers/Facebook followers since she was adopted from our shelter in August 2025. She had enjoyed the freedom of her very own home for the past six months and is sad to be back in a shelter cage, so we hope that Taylor will quickly find another loving home.

Taylor has already been spayed and is up-to-date on vaccinations including rabies vaccine. She weighs approximately 9 lbs.

These photos of Taylor were taken on March 20, 2026 while she was taking a catnap in one of the special cardboard boxes that local Girl Scouts donated for our shelter kitties during their Girl Scout cookie fundraiser. Taylor is currently in a double-wide cage in The Jungle Room where most our our adoptable cats are housed.
