My story

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

Are you ready to bring a little sunshine into your life? Say hello to Sandcastle, also called Sandy, a stunning sandy-colored tortie with a heart as warm as a summer day and a purr that could calm even the stormiest seas.

This beachy beauty is the full package: friendly, outgoing, playful, and impeccably well-mannered in the home. She’ll charm your guests, entertain herself with toys (or a stray sock!), and cuddle up like she’s known you forever. Sandcastle lives life like a beach vacation – relaxed, joyful, and always chasing the next fun adventure.

Now, we won’t skirt the tide—Sandcastle does have a bit of hair loss on her sides, possibly due to an allergy. But don’t let her patchy spots fool you: this girl is as confident and happy as ever. She’s currently on a special prescription diet and receiving treatment, which is helping, but her forever family should be ready to partner with their vet to continue her care and help her find her just-right routine.

Think of her as a beautiful work in progress, like a castle being rebuilt by the sea—each day better than the last.

If you’re looking for a loving, playful, and delightfully quirky companion who radiates sunshine even on the cloudiest day, Sandcastle is waiting to meet you. Build your heart a little home in the sand—and let Sandcastle move right in.
