My story

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

Meet Angel!

A sweet and gentle senior Domestic Short Hair from Meriden, CT, whose tortoiseshell coat shimmers with subtle shades of black, orange, and cream, echoing the warm and quiet soul beneath.

Angel’s story is a tender one. Her beloved guardian, who has cared for her with great love and devotion, is sadly going into hospice. Now, Angel is searching for a new loving home where she can find comfort and peace in her golden years.

At first glance, Angel might seem a little reserved, and that’s simply because she’s a shy girl who takes her time warming up to new surroundings. But don’t let her initial timidness fool you—beneath that cautious exterior lies a heart full of love just waiting to blossom! This lovely lady has never shown an ounce of aggression, and she’s been around other cats, blending in with a quiet grace that speaks to her calm nature.

Angel’s large size gives her a regal presence, but she carries herself with the gentle poise of a cat who knows the comfort of a good sunbeam and a cozy spot to nap. She doesn’t fuss much about toys, preferring the simple pleasures of a peaceful nap or a quiet moment of contemplation by the window. While she may not have a favorite toy, she finds joy in the quiet company of those who understand the beauty of stillness and patience.

Vaccinated, spayed, and litter-trained, Angel is in tip-top shape and ready to find a new loving home. She’s comfortable with other feline friends, though she might need a little time to adjust to new ones. Her shy nature means she’ll appreciate a quiet, calm environment where she can feel secure and loved.

Are you someone who can offer this gentle soul the patience and understanding she needs? Angel’s ideal family would be one that values the quiet moments of connection, the soft purrs of contentment, and the slow but sure blossoming of trust and affection.

Ready to bring Angel into your life, even from afar? She’s open to a long-distance adoption, ready to travel to the right family who will cherish her just as she is.

Could you be the compassionate pet parent Angel needs? Reach out to adopt@joyfulpets.com and start a beautiful journey with this shy, but loving, tortoiseshell treasure!
