My story

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

Meet Brea, a 10-year-old sweetheart with a big personality and an even bigger heart! This affectionate lady is a pro at cuddles and loves being held—though don’t be surprised if she gives you a tiny squeaky meow when it’s time to put her down.

Brea is playful and curious, with a particular fondness for string toys and catnip scratch posts. Watch her go wild chasing and pouncing, or find her cozying up inside her favorite box—her idea of the perfect hideaway. She’s also quite the conversationalist, especially when it’s mealtime. If you forget, don’t worry—she’ll remind you with her chatty meows!

Having lived with children in her previous home, Brea knows how to charm everyone she meets. Whether she’s enjoying some playtime, soaking up snuggles, or delighting you with her antics, this vocal and loving girl is ready to fill her forever home with joy. Will you be the lucky one to make her part of your family?

If you are interested in adopting Brea, please visit the shelter during our adoption hours.
