My story

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

A24871 Melanie is a gray and white tabby colored, approximately 1-year-old, 8-pound, spayed female, Domestic Short-Haired Cat.
She entered the shelter as a stray on 01-10-2025 and was altered by our medical staff.
Melanie is a friendly, social, easy to handle girl here in the shelter. She was not happy when she first got here and took a little time to get comfortable. The same may happen in her new home. She is a little unsure and trying to figure out what is going on right now. She was friendly and enjoys affection, leaning into our head and neck scratches. She was playful and curious when checking out the playroom. She enjoyed going into the cubbies and playing with the different toys. Melanie will be a fun-loving family member in her new forever home.
