Hello, my name is Shey. Aren't I pretty? I am a shy girl who is about 3 years old. When we have built some trust and I feel safe in my new environment, I will head butt your hand for pets and attention. I really do love affection and attention. It's just that I have had some not so good experiences with people in the past and I'm a bit scared to be mistreated again. But I am a soft soul with a sweet nature. I am laid back and mellow. I just have to keep finding my brave. I am already spayed and vaccinated. I always use the litterbox box like a good girl and I just love other kitties. They're my security blanket and help me come out of my shell. When other cats are around, I melt into a cuddle puddle of purrs. Are you one of those kind humans? Will you give me a chance to join your family. I would really like to try. You'll see my eyes change from sad and lonely to content and relaxed. There's no more rewarding feeling in the world. Just give me a chance! Adoption fee: $75. Adopt a pair: $110. Fee includes testing, deworming, vaccinations, spay/neuter, microchip and 30 days of free pet insurance.

NOTE ABOUT BREED LABELING: Visual breed identification of cats is unreliable and usually inaccurate. So, for most of our adoptable cats, we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each cat or kitten
as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our cats based on personality, not by breed label.
Adoption Process: Complete the application at
www.pawsforliferescue.org. We then arrange a location, date and time for you to meet some pets. If the meeting goes well and everyone is happy, you begin the mandatory, minimum two-week adjustment period with the pet as part of your family. You will pay the non-refundable adoption fee at the start of the two-week adjustment period. This pending period allows your new dog or cat time to adjust to their new home, new people, new routine, etc., and for you to decide if it's a match and the right pet for you. At the end of two weeks (some people extend the adjustment time as needed and that's fine too), if everyone is happy, then we finalize the adoption. Feel free to email if you have any questions.
