My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hi there, Iandamp;#39;m Beatrice!andlt;br/andgt;andlt;br/andgt;I came to Great Plains SPCA from another shelter, which was very scary for me! The shelter was an overwhelming place for a shy cat like me, but my foster home has helped me come out of my shell. andlt;br/andgt;Iandamp;#39;m learning to trust people, especially if you give me treats! My favorite game is when you toss a treat for me to chase or bat around! Head butting is my preferred way to show you I care, and I love it when you head butt me back! I can get easily overwhelmed by loud noises and sudden movement, so a quiet home with older kids is a better fit for me. Itandamp;#39;s also intimidating when people tower over me, but if you sit on the floor I will come over to you. I donandamp;#39;t mind other cats, so Iandamp;#39;m open to having a cat friend.andlt;br/andgt;andlt;br/andgt;I am finding my voice and will give you very squeaky quiet meows when I say hello to you. I may be an adult cat, but I still have kitten energy and would love to play with you! My favorite toys are anything I can chase! Iandamp;#39;m very independent and donandamp;#39;t mind entertaining myself too. I love lounging on my cat tree and watching the birds outside. andlt;br/andgt;andlt;br/andgt;Does your home seem like a good fit for me? Iandamp;#39;d love to meet you!

- Adopters must complete a survey and present photo identification to meet any of our animals.
- For the safety and health of our animals, we do not ship pets.

The adoption fee for each animal varies and is dependent on many factors including: age, size, behavior, medical condition, and public demand.
